hmnmmm..how use this rom??which one i have choose at romkitchen.de??
im still dont understand bout WM5,,WM5 its same with WM2003???
you pick the one you like to have
about wm5 then no wm5 is very very different from wm2003
with wm2003 the memory is devided between storing data
and running programs
in wm5 all! ram is for applications
and flash is for storing data on
on later devices then wallaby the user can access flash to put data on
on wallaby you cant
so even if somebody spend the months it would prob take to make a rom for wallaby one would not even be able to put a contact or phone number on it
let alone a program to make application memory into storage
oh..thanks..i already cook the roms,,,its working fine...

First I appologize for the delay in the availability of this ROM. I was out of town on some business, and the site was down again for a certain time.
To get down to the details, this ROM is the complete set of all three .nbf files, I chose the 2.06 NK.nbf because the cleartype fonts are way better than the 2.02. The radio stack included is version 1.18, and the extended ROM (ms_.nbf) is a customized 2.06.100a, which is a mixture of the extended ROM that dcs posted, the one that came with the 2.06 ROM from the mystery guy and the official Asian 1.60.44 ROM.
I had to remove a couple of the Asian telco provider settings because there was no more space left in the extended ROM since the new versions of the software had larger file sizes than before, and the AutoConfig for Asian telcos alone takes up a lot of space too.
I still included the Extended ROM Viewer and almost all of the newer versions of the software included in the extended ROMs posted by dcs and the mystery guy.
The following telco providers were removed (due to their file sizes being the largest):
1. 1010
2. One2Free
The Socket SDIO Wi-Fi that were available in the previous ROM I posted were also removed due to the lack of space, the SPB GPRS Monitor that was provided as part of one of the extended ROMs posted was also removed. The thumbpad driver is in the extended ROM but does not auto-install, since some times it causes problems, you may install it separately by just clicking on the cab file.
The files removed are included in the .ZIP file so that they may be installed separately if desired.
I would like to thank dcs,mamaich, the mystery man and all other developers who contributed to this endeavor.

I am not too clear about the problem, you flashed your device with the ROM I posted?
This did not happen to me during the multiple times I flashed my device and my dad's device.
I am a bit puzzled here, can anyone help in this matter? ANy similar experiences?
It's so difficult to download! :? I must have tried at least 6 to 7 times. Each time it just stop there.
hi people, i m new to this forum and new to xda2. Just wondering, how do u guys download and load up all the upgrades? hope u pros can give me some pointers.... thanks in advance
Finally managed to download the file. Do I need to do anything before installing the new ROM?
I had once tried to upgrade my unit (blame it on initial enthusiasm, I'd seen all these talks about upgrading to newer ROM versions everywhere on the net that I downloaded an upgrade 2 weeks before I actually bought my device) with a ROM version I had downloaded from O2's UK (The unit was bought from singapore/Honkgkong...Asia ROM presumably)site which naturally and the consequenses were very depressing , I was left with a dead machine on my hands and nobody I knew could be of any help. Anyway that had been taken care of a couple of days back when it reflashed at an authorised service centre.
Well that being that , now that its working fine and now that I see all this talk about windows mobile 2003 SE here I have this irresistable urge to try upgrading mu unit to run SE.
A couple of things before I try to get adventurous
1)How do I do a backup of of EVERYTHING ON MY MACHINE ( Original BASIC/Just out of the box/First time run software included ) So that I don't have to take a week off work just to get the unit reflashed.
2) How do I do a restore all of the backed up data on my device if the 2003SE upgrade doesnt work? From what I have learnt , it isnt anything like a regular computer where just about anyone can format boot and reload windows if it crashes.
I figure a dead PPC is like a regular computer with a dead bios.
I can understand that this post is about 5 times the length of a usual post here but I just had to get all my backup plans in place before I jump off a cliff.
you can use either the x-backup in the xda itself and making a complete back up to your sd or mmc card or make a backup via active sync on the tools menu
where is the download link??

I have an xda II australian model, i want windows media player 10, can i use the chinese rom??
This is gonna be my first time to update the ROM of my device so some questions:
Did you include upgrade instructions on the zip?
How do I disable some of the .cab files on the extended rom? I dont like some of them.
Had any probs with this rom on Globe?
~ishtangli
What's the BT software on the new rom? Widcomm or MS?
Hi Folks,
I'm using iMate pocket PC which i bought from India. Its awesome while sync with my exchange server and get me entire mailbox of mine to the device.
I also want to check whether i can enjoy the WM2003SE on this device. I have been reading quite a few posts on WM2003SE for XDA here (i'm not sure whether this is the right forum to talk bout the iMate; however, i tried coz i seen a category for HTC).
I know for sure that the vendor has not yet published WM2003SE for iMate PPC. however, Could anybody please let me know if i can upgrade my iMate to WM2003SE (i'm crezy about it and a couple of days back i just decided to use one of the upgrade from this site and somehow cud hold myself as i cud not predict what its going to do with my device ). If its possibel, from where shall I get the upgrade?
thanks in advance.

Cheers.
Hi Columbus,
thanks for the response,
Wud this upgrade work with the iMate Pocket PC from India?
thats what is the concern for me. I have seen threads where we need to modify the .nbf files for the operator / country codes. Do i need to modify the .nbf file for this upgrade?
thanks.

From Today screen, goto START/Settings/System/Device Information.
What's your ROM version/date, Radio version etc?
You can search and check out DCS posting on how to check the operator code on the .nbf files and your devices.
Alternatively, if you are not too worry about changing the operator code (since the upgrade to WM2003SE voids warranty anyway), you can run the upgrade only with HimaUpgradeUt.exe (remove the HimaGetDeviceData.exe and HimaClearJumpCode.exe).
There exists many tutorials/tips from people who have tried the upgrade, so have a good read and copy the important tips.
Some general tips from me:
(a) Backup all your important data (calendar schedule, docs, contacts etc)
(b) Be mentally prepared to spend quite awhile doing the upgrade. Smooth upgrade -> 1-2 hours, Error-prone upgrade -> 1-2 days.
Do not rush, or you will find that 99% of the time, the error happens because you are careless. Always clarify, clarify, clarify.
(c) If encounter errors, copy the sequence of events, EXACT error messages, search for similar errors reported here. If unable to find, post your errors to request for urgent help!
(d) Also, if you have the luxury of a spare phone, keep that handy in case your mobile phone connectivity is indispensable to you.
(e) If all else fails, be prepared for a downgrade back to the original ROM. Remember to download the original WM2003 ROM package as well.
good luck!

Thanks.
Hi Guys,
i downloaded the himalaya update for win mobile 2003. Now I have a problem. The phone which was 1.72.01GER, extROM 1.72.184, radio - 1.17.00 now has become 2.02.t1WWE, radio 1.18 (NO EXTROM version),but the extended ROM is still in german and will not let the new version install. I have to rest the PDA to use it. But most of it seems to work well. I have tried to install the 1.72.181 WWE version, but I get langage id errors (I tried GER, WWE).
There was a note with the installation that said do not let TDxxxx.exe run, in config.txt. I have no idea were to find the file.
please help.
Could it possible to erase all of the rom and install a new version altogether? or erase the ext rom alone? If yes then HOW????
I am not using O2's services in India.
Thanks a million.
Hope what i have written makes some sense.

Search around for ExtROM posted by ZeroExtreme, DCS or SIN. It's probably zipped up or in .EXE file. But the final file you are looking for is ms_.nbf.
Put it together with your ROM nk.nbf file and re-run the upgrade again.
You can skip the RADIO .nbf file to save some time.
thanks Henry. Will try your solution and let you know.
Hi there,
i have a problem, my hermes did a hard reset (after playing with Sktools) ,and the bad thing is that i took all the cabs out of the extrom to free space and install other( prog not cab).

I'm not sure if this is the best way, but try to upgrade to lastest LVSW that includes Extended ROM, so after the upgrade, you can unlock in the same way you do in the past and use the 10Mb extra space.
Of course, if you are not planning to upgrade to WM6, don't follow me
REgards.
thank you jcespi2005
but i prefer to stay with a french and stabel rom. Are they any french patche for this rom.
Th
flash a NBH containing only an extrom using HardSPL, this will fix your issue.
Thanks Pof,
but i am a beginner.
Where can i find it or how can i do it ?
TH
wiki and forum, search for: nbhextract, nbhgen, hardspl and customRUU.
1) Flash HardSPL (latest version) on your phone
2) Extract ExtROM.nb from any shipped NBH (it doesn't matter which one) using nbhextract
3) Convert ExtROM.nb to NBH using nbhgen
4) Flash your newly created NBH file containing only ExtROM into your device using CustomRUU, make sure to start the upgrade in bootloader mode with activesync disabled.
super
muchas gracias Pof
I'll let you know if i succed
Thierry
Use the same guide here but change the technique to Ext.ROM only and don't select the OS.nb. In other words it's exactly the same steps exept for one.
filehttp://www.mrvanx.myzen.co.uk/hermes_guide/Downgrade/
ok sniper251
this means i only have to "click" on the extrom button and disregard the others ?
Yes and don't forget step #4 in Pof post assuming you have Hard Spl 1.40olipro.
Also you can check wether the .nb file is good or not before conversion using the file attached.
It worked fine to extarct the extrom.nb but which command do i need to execute the NBHgen ?
BTW i could not download the koch generator
Thanks for help

Hi, I have an XDA II running WM2003 (the last o2 original rom). With the official upgrading I am asked to perform an hard reset, put the pda on the cradle ad so on until update is done. I wish to upgrade to wm6 but before I would know if it is possible to use the same procedure to downgrade from wm6 to wm2003.
HOw colud I perform an upgrade from wm2003 to wm6? i read many treads but it seems they talk of upgrade from wm5 to wm6.
Anyone knows? Thanks in advance
all upgrades are don in the same way
be it from 2003 to 2005 or 2005 to 2003
or 2006.........
same way
the flashtool just take the rom in the dir at put it on the pda

So why is it suggested to do a full back up before an upgrade? Wouldn't it be sufficient to re-install the old rom using official upgrading program?
For example if I dont like a wm5 or wm6 rom isn't enough that I use the XDA_II_Upgrade_v_172181.exe to go back to wm2003?
In any case how can i do full backup/restore?
Thanks a lot
The Term "MAKING FULL BACKUP" doesnt means to back up the whole rom..it means to backup you Whole DATA...(like contacts,appointments,notes,messages,e-mail,etc...)

All ok for backup. What about downgrading? Can I use the official XDA_II_Upgrade_v_172181.exe to go back to wm2003?
not sure about exe file flash's as i always do the nbf path
but as i said then the himalayaflash tool dont care about what
rom is located in the dir it just flash it

I have understood the process. Looging at tha official update I see the same file used iwith the flash tool but there if no need to put the device in bootloader mode.
PS: I think I have found a indirect way to look at the bootloader version.
