Just wondering, has anyone been through all the various branded hermes ext roms? I know there's a page in the wiki listing the file name content of each but identifying what each does is a bit difficult. I had a bit of a poke with wince cab manager but it's a lengthy process.
Does anyone know if say the dopod ext rom has goodies/apps/patches the imate doesn't?
i can tell you that the vodafone uk sucks...
i really have to change this rom... :S

Hi to you all.
I have the current XDA II UK Rom on my i-mate and its the best rom I have ever had, I really like the look of it and it seems vey stable as well.
The Active User Interface on the today screen is configered for UK O2, is there any way to edit the files in the Windows\V2R\O2ActiveUI\Data. I guess that is the files with all the settings for voicemail number, country settings etc... I am Vodafone Australia.
Any help please...
Hi,
you can try to modify the cab-File (o2ActiveUI....cab) in the Extended ROM.
Take WinCE Cab Manager to edit the above mentioned cab-file. In this cab-file you will find another cab-file (o2ActiveUI.cab?) which you should extract first and after that edit with the WinCE Cab Manager.
In this file you will find several settings for different providers (o2 UK & o2 GER). I think that it should be possible to change them, but did not try that yet (though I also intend to do that).
Should you succeed, it would be great if you could post what you've figured out...

Has anyone assessed what all the files do in the T-MObile Beta 1.72 Extended ROM do.
I do not see any flashman stuff, but there are some TMD Files, and I see a T-Mobile file also.
With other officially released T-Mobile ROM Upgrades there were many posts, on this Forum and others, describing what the EXT Rom files did.
I would like to eliminate some of the Ext. ROM Files that are a waste of space and may hurt PPC performance.

Hi Ed,
did you upgrade your MDA II with the new beta ROM version 1.72 from
T-MOBILE?
i sand you email About that, can you reply to my email.
Thanks.
haim.
Is it possible to give a site where I can find T-mobile upg
upgrades?!!! IN ENGLISH!!!
Does anyone know what are the differences between the new ROM 3.17.03 and the previous ?
why ahs the number changed from 1.XX to 3.XX al of a sudden ?
What happened to my thread?
How did we get to different Roms etc?
MartinHSabag, you must be speaking about an XDA I, not II.
Back to the thread I started, does anyone know what the UK 1.72 T-Mobile ROM, Ext. Rom files do, and which files may be eliminated?
Hi everybody. I've got two Himalayas. One I sucessfully flashed with the WWE O2 rom at some point in the past, and another I just bought yesterday. That one is a dopod 696, and I'd like to fuse the two roms after a fashion. I want the machine to be english, but want to swipe the chinese language abilities of the dopod (it's chinese input rocks). I tried the grab_it method - which will grab the O2 rom, but it evidently doesn't like the chinese name of the sd card on the dopod.
Anyways, I've been looking around here, and lots of the tools seem to all be for the wallaby. What gives? Haven't any of the tools been upgraded for Himalaya? How do you guys cook your roms/extract the parts/combine/reflash? The info is all over the place in bits and pieces!
Thanks. Amazing what y'all do.
PS. I'd be more than happy to post the dopod rom on my own server space if someone can clue me in...
Hi. I Would Just like To Know How To Create A Cab File That Had All The Settings I Used On My Phone.
I Just Upgraded The Firmware On My TyTN To The AT&T AKU 3.3 Rom And Being From The UK This Ment I Had A Lot Of Information To Change In Order To Get My GPRS,WAP,MMS,E-Mails And Keyboard Layout To Work Again. It Would Have Been Really Handy If I Had Had A Cab File Wich Would Have Added All That Data For Me.
So I Was Just Wondering If Anyone Knew How To Do That.
Cheers
Sorry, Couldn't Help But To Post This, But Maybe You Also Need To Change The Setting That Automatically Capitalises The First Letter Of Every Word.
Just kidding with ya . You might have better luck in the Hermes forum, rather than the Hermes Upgrading forum.
You may try to use a software called ''WinCE.CAB.Manager''

Easy way is to find the Ext_ROM from a shipped ROM from Orange UK and run the extrom cabs to get the MMS/SMS and GPRS settings etc...

May somebody please upload the german HTC or T-Mobile Rom from Athena x7510?
Maybe it isn't necessary to dump it because it is possibly on the software cd or avalible for download for owners with a serial number.

Sorry, it is not. You need to wait until cooked versions get on the forum. But for this we need our spl solution. Please go to General section and find thread asking for subsection for X7510 and place your vote for it. Without it OliNex group wan't start their work on Hard/Soft SPL solution.
Done. I've voted.
But just for being sure you understood me right.
I wanna have the german x7510 Rom to flash it on my x7500 an add keyboard and microdrive drivers.
What I asked for in my Post was if so. may dump the rom if it isn't possible to download.

Then you need rom for x7500, not for x7510. These are plenty to choose from, also german version have sean somware. Go to the link which list all roms for Athena. I have sean there links to german roms as well.
Do you meen this http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=397518 or this http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=Athena_Upgrades List?
Because there is no original T-Mobile or HTC WM 6.1 Rom.

Thats true. There is no original german 6.1 rom not even english WWE version. I told you already. They do not exist as files available because nither HTC nor any other party has released it. It was only in X7510 devices.
Some devs here like Pawel has dumped it from X7510 (but WWE version) and then used for their work. But that means their roms were already cooked. You can not dump rom from one machine and then load it to another one, cose after dumping you get a bunch of files wich you have to put togather, cooke a rom. This means you need to have unlock you CID at least or if you have a t-mobile ameo, then sim unlock as well.
So those german cooked versions are the only available, according to my knowledge.
Thank you for this informations. Now I understand what's the Problem.
But is it difficult to dump a rom?
Because the dump of a german htc or tmobile 6.1 rom would be very usefull for me, even I cant flash them directly because I know so. who wants to beginn cook a german rom version.
But therefor he needs the dump.
So my question:
Is it difficult to dump and can one use this advise for it:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=334680 ?
And how difficult is it to ripp the htc programms from the dumped rom and make cabs of them?
An other question:
There was such a nice rom kitchen for the wallaby http://www.romkitchen.de/ .
One was able to simly choose with one click what should be in one's rom.
Is this possible for Athena to? and do you think this will be programmed anytime?
Because even with the existing irus rom kitchen its very difficult I think.

You can try Sogarth's Hypercore kitchen. It is more user friendly.
Thanks for the Tipp but it doesn't solve my problem.
I need a raw dump of a german x7510 rom.
I just found these:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=410302
Even if it is just for linux and i just have linux live cds it's a gui based kitchen similar to the wallaby's.

Kitchen is one thing, ingredients are the other. You can use Sogatrhs kitchen and put german dumped rom in it and then cooke it according to your needs.
Howewer, I think there is already cooked german rom made out of mixture of wwe6.1 and some german version.
Yes I know that I could use the rom kitchen for flashing a german dumped rom but this is exactly what I'm asking for.
Please post the link if you know a german dump.

I do not think there is one. Never heard of.
But you can take the German rom ready cooked by somebody else (there is one as you know) and dissemble it in Sogarth's Kitchen. Then you can take what you want from it and put into Sogarth's base, changing in this way all files necessary for German language, for example. You would make some changes in XIP and regs as well to change the language.
Or the other way, taking some files from Sogarth's base into your German base taken from this German cooked rom.
Of course to do it right, you must know what you are doing, but it is the same as cooking rom for x7500 out of x7510, which is different machine and has different drivers.
However I have never sow any post from anybody saing that he has German X7510 version, so rather no chance for dumped German rom from this device. I actualy doubt if HTC has ever released German version. The same about T-Mobile, but I could be wrong.
