ogel2, Tabbe and ronalddo for testing the atom rom.
Special Thank to BesFen, he helps me making an Manila 2D enabled new ROM and give me many good suggestions.
Rom Selection Guide:
There are so many ROMs on my thread that the new comers can hardly find which one fit their needs. This section will describe each ROM concisely and state my suggestion.
->If you want a stable ROM with Chinese support:
The main series of "clean and stable" ROM will fit you best. This ROM is also well supported by me and the stability is evaluated by time. I recommend you the b221 ROM.
->If you want to try something new and bleeding edge versions
The WP 6.5 series ROM fit you best.
->If you want to try Manila 2D enabled ROM:
There are 2 versions: Jade version and Besfen version. I do not support the Jade version very well due to time limitation. Besfen version is newer and supported by him. I think you can try Besfen's version first.
->If you want to make your own customization:
Try my kitchen. It is supported by me and you can ask questions about it.
->If you want ROMs of other languages:
There are CHS, CHT, GER versions.But they are unsupported and a little old. The stability is OK.
->If you want Atom ROM:
THere are Atom-R2 Rom here. But it is not supported. You can try it.
HP6828 Clean and Stable WM6.1 WWE rom:
The rom have Jade's kernel and kaiser's system as the base. The pagepool is 6M for stability as well as performance.

Kitchen World:
The kitchen is a set of tool and files to rebuild and customize the ROM for convinence. I hope cookers enjoy these tools. I also released the non-supported 20273 system in hope of external force to stabilize it. Atom's kitchen is a little old. But it is still a good base to build atom's ROMs. Update f is essentially a new 6.5 kitchen. You can enjoy that more.
Donation
Thank you very much for those who has donated and supported me. You do not need to donate as 6828 is not exciting any more. You can show your thanks by following this thread.

How to flash using SD Card(Recommended):
Extract diskimg.nb0 to a sd card (<1G is better), insert it into 6828, press&hold 2 soft key(-) and reset. After a while, it will be in PBL mode, wait 15-20min, it will hard reset itself and flash done. The first boot time is very long so be patient , you may click the screen so that the device will not auto-off.
How to flash from PC with Windows XP (It is ok to run it in vmware)
Thanks Knave and rcperez for posting their detailed experience so I can write this section. Also thanks jimmyspa for improving the addheader's performance greatly.
1. Check your Boat loader version
(do a soft reset, and check the value printed at the bottom during the HP logo screen)
2. If you noticed that the last line states BL 1.00.05, it means you have boat loader 1.05 installed. You will need to download and flash your phone back to 1.01 via ftp://ftp.hp.com/pub/softpaq/sp34001-34500/sp34053.exe (VERY DANGEROUS, FLASHING VIA SD IS MUCH SAFER!)
3. After successfully downgraded your phone's boatloader, or your version was already v1.01, you can proceed to flash your phone to the rom.
With the check done, proceed with the required files.
1. Go to download section to download the rom file.
2. Download the file pcupdate.zip attached in this thread and unzip the contents to the same folder you used in step 1.
3. Download the latest Rom file and extract to the same folder
4. Run BuffereAddHeader.bat. It will take seconds to generate a diskimage_Ver.nb0. (You should have Java Runtime > 1.50 installed, http://www.java.com/en/download/manual.jsp)
5. Move your phone to boatloader mode ( press the two - keys, follow by a poke at the soft reset hole with your stylus )
6. Connect the phone to the PC
7. Execute the Device Utility Update program and wait till it verifies the state. Click on Update Item "All" use cursor keys to change it to "OS ONLY" then hit next **** SELECT "OS ONLY", if you cant change it to "OS ONLY" DONT PROCEED!!! It should detect your device as Model 0 etc.
8. Press Next to begin flashing.
9. Once completed, the phone will reset by itself. Wait for a while for it to startup.
Here are the notes & files provided by hochengsoon with README for flashing via Windows XP
PC flashing using BL1.0.1 must be done from C:\Windows\Temp, so why not start everthing from this folder ie PCUpdate + ROM + missing file(s).
PCUpdate1.rar - http://www.mediafire.com/file/k5jumzzg1mm/PCUpdate1.rar

How to downgrade to WM5 using PC
1. download wm5 rom from http://h20000.www2.hp.com/bizsuppor...ng=8&taskId=135&swEnvOID=2067&hpappid=NextGen
2. run it and after entering the updating screen cancel it.
3. replace the hpRUU.exe in c:\IPAQ(default install) with the attached file hpRUU.exe in archive hpRUU.zip
4. Connect device to PC, then press and hold two "-" button and reset.
5. Run hpRUU.exe and do a normal update.
Note: you may delete eboot*.nbf to prevent bricking the device.
How to downgrade to WM5 using SD Card
1. Download this file: http://www.mediafire.com/?mbwxx9szmyz
2. Extract diskimg.nb0 to your sd card.
3. Enter bootloader mode by pressing two "-" keys.
4. Wait .
How to recover from semi-brick state:
1. Prepare a sd card with proper diskimg.nb0.
2. Pull out the batter for a few minutes.
3. Press and hold two "-" button and at the same time, put the battery in.
4. Wait a few second and release the button, then after a while, the device will be in bootloader mode.
How to use kitchens (NEW writen by besfen):
Req: .NET2.0+
1. Download Kitchen Tools and extract it.
2. If you have diskimg.nb0 file that you want to modified, copy it to the TOOLS directory and ROM directory.
3. In "cmd", "cd" to the TOOLS directory.
4. Run prepare_imgfs.exe diskimg.nb0, it will dump the .nb0 file.
5. Run viewimgfs.exe imgfs_raw_data.bin, it will make dump folder in the TOOlS directory.
6. Run pkgtools.exe, select the dump folder and build package, it will make 2 folder, SYS and OEM.
7. Sometime some files don't move to that folder, you can open missing.txt file to know where the location of that file, move the files to the location said in the missing.txt. Finally, there isn 't files in the dump folder, all file are in the SYS and OEM. Delete missing.txt and OS.bat in OEM folder. SYS is M$ related, OEM is oem added things.
8. Replace the original SYS and OEM folder in the kitchen with new extracted ones.
User can change the OEM at will except the OEMDriver folder. I have modified it many times to get it stable on new ROM.
To add a new OEM Software, you need:
1. Extract the cab file of the app, you can use wincab manager to do this.
2. Put the extracted files to the new folder in the OEM. The folder name don't contain space, you can use _ (underscore).
3. Type the registry in the one of .rgu file. There are many .rgu file there, you can edit it with notepad. if you finish save as, choose all file and unicode type, but don't change the name of that .rgu file.
4. Make a shortcut, open initflash.dat file with notepad, the location is in the OEM_lang folder, type the shortcut name. You can read the existing shortcut in that file to know how to do it. Remember to make the shortcut file first in the folder of each app.
After that, just run build.bat file in the kitchen directory, follow the instruction and your ROM already created in the FLASH FOLDER.
GOOD LUCK.

First, the wifi light is working on my 6828. The camera flash light do not work though.
Second, I have ALREADY cut the 12 byte header, so it is safe to flash using a SD card. I said that if you need to flash using RUU you need to ADD 12 BYTE.
Thanks for your interest in my rom.

This is interesting. Can people report whether this is a stable ROM, other than the noted bugs?
Also, will it flash with a 2gb miniSD card? That's all I have.
Thanks.
i need a clean rom too, nhocbanme's rom is great but it's not clean. Dirty with HTC applications and full of black which i don't like.
i'm currently using this rom since a month ago, i think this is a stable and great rom. work flawlessly.
thanks helloworld1
i'm waiting for ur next update rom
Hellooow....helloworld1,
I ve flash this ROM today. It took about 15 minutes. Very good and clean ROM. Everything works perfect, Bluetooth stereo working nice, JAVA midlet also okay, camera works good with flash automatically light during photography. High memory after install 70 applications still got 42MB internal memory left. Hmmm....what else to comment...nothing , all perfect
When are you going to release WM6.1 with this type of super clean ROM....waiting....waiting
Keep up the good work!!!
I've splatted my 6815 with this ROM today, and thankfully it works a treat! It takes a while for its first boot but then I started to breath again when it came up.
The camera doesn't work at all though. The program loads but errors with "failed to get jpeg stream" or similar when clicking the cam's hw button. However that's a small sacrifice to pay when the pay off is WM6, that HP can't be bothered to provide.
Many thanks to helloworld1, and here's hoping you release WM6.1 in due course. \o/

6815 may need a patch to get camera working. You may need to search around.
I do not have a 6815, so I will not embed it in this rom.

I haven't find any solution in the bugs in "bad section". So maybe I will not do minor update to this rom. Also, it will, maybe, save your time updating something worthless.
What about 6.1:
Due to the reason that 6.1 haven't been official released, I do not have a strong will to make a unstable rom.
I will release a 6.1 rom if it is stable and no clean one have released.

No, NEVER TRY TO UPDATE IT WITH CARD MORE THAN 1GB!!
It will almost surely brick(not badly) your device that causes some unnecessary trouble. After that you can still flash again.
So there are 10(!) choices for you:
01.Buy a 256m or 512m card.
11.Add 12 byte header and flash using RUU.
10.Simply do not update

as i've seen in : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=358704
everyone in commenting about bug(the camera wont work, failed to flash,etc)
so i made this thread to help nhocbanme monitor the bug that occured in his ROM
make the report format as follows:
----------------------------------
1. HP iPAQ version : rw6828,rw6818 or rw6815
2. ROM from nhocbanme that is used : 1.1, 1.2 , 1.3, or 1.4
3. Bugs found : camera not working, or some application that's installed wont work(list the name of the application),etc
4. Suggestion : change the keyboard color into default, or add SRSWOW,etc
----------------------------------
this way nhocbanme and all of us user of his ROM could evaluate it and decide which is the best.

Thanks bro so much!!!!
I'll try to make best ROM
1. HP iPAQ version : rw6828
2. ROM used : nhocbanme's 1.4
3. Bugs found : Camera screen flickers. Autoconfiguration does not apply my MMS & GPRS settings. System volume is still soft compared to other ROMs.
4. Suggestion : Implement the battery drain improvement like homers's ROM.
Side note : My device unable to power up from standby randomly after flashing to WM6 rom. Any rw6828 users out there having the same issue as me ? I suspect is the activesync auto run during device standby. I've applied the fake server tweak but still the same.

OK, i'll do it
That was a nice and quick reply from you .
Btw can you try to delete all folder with "xip" in their file name in SYS & OEM folder when make image on your next rom ? Maybe that could solve some Screen Of Death (SOD) issue. Just looked into some interesting post that someone in xda-developers found here :
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=339792&page=6
1. HP iPAQ version : rw6815
2. ROM used : nhocbanme's 1.4b
3. Bugs found : Camera don´t work. Autoconfiguration does not apply my MMS & GPRS settings, so i can´t send or receive messages (portugal).
4. Suggestion : keep the apps from hp camera from wm5 original rom??!!??
hi ncohbanme,.
let me try to look at your xip, the SOD issue, might come from there,.
and i think you dont need to delete the xip folder, LangDB (it is used by anopther module, if you delete it, some module will not be able to search for it, then you'll have a bug)
can you upload your XIP.bin?
Actually, XIP folder isnt necessary in the kitchen (inside ROM folder), but you need one ROM file that have a new OS, and best XIP, inside the ROM folder,.
may it help you,.

3. Bugs found :
after using wm5torage and when u use file explorer the SD card is not avaliable until u take out the card and put it back into the slot again.
4. Suggestion :
SRS WOW is functioning if you install Netv3.5.cab again(since i think the rom has already got net3.5 pre-installed),its strange because it says error installing at the end...but the SRS works after reinstalling netcfv3.5...

It is mentioned that some fields need onscreen keyboard... Do you need it in messaging?
And how fast is the device with the PRO version??
link is dead again
It's WM61ProV1g.7z, not WM61Prov1g.7z.
Anyway, it's finally here, cant wait to flash it. Totally awesome.
I was waiting for this but I cannot flash right now. Can't wait to find time for flash and test.
Thanks a lot Erofich, you are the best!
Thank You!
It's already running on my Qtek 8500! At moment I've done only my first phone call with new OS
Thank You!!
im backing up my phone now and i will be joining the WM6.1 PRO community soon! ETA 90min. thanks Erofich!
backup done! preparing to flash... fingers crossed..
Beautiful ROM
Not that i dislike Russian but the Calendar and Date/Time show Russian and the rest is in English. Can this be changed?
Really nice ROM
I like it a lot. Everything with Active Sync seems to be working great. Great work. I would like to donate something via paypal. is this possible.

Change it to yours in regional settings
most likely, you only need to change it in settings-system-regional settings
Update on Russian Language
Update: Sorry it was be default in Russian. I just set it to English.
Why should somebody change from standard WM 6.1 to WM 6.1 Pro? - The Pro Version has not so much funktiones - as i see...
What are the advantages of the new version?
Thanks!
Bug(s) List
OK i finally flashed WM6.1 PRO to my startrek. so *****ing as always (sorry Erofich, i just want to help you guys iron out the bugs), here is the bugs list. (to be updated as frequently as needed, so please check back this post)
Bug List (updated 20th Mac 08)
=======================
1. Microphone AGC does not work. enabling will only get a white display with nothing (doesnt hang the device though). and when you check it again, it is still not enabled.
UPDATE : Will be removed in future version
2. When in fake cursor mode, if you leave the device there for a while and it does into standby, the device wakes up in a black dark screen, with only cursor working and the rest of the buttons disabled. cannot access anything too. (i have the owner information displayed on power up optoion checked)
UPDATE : According to Erofich, new cursor coming soon!
3. Camera software is not displaying properly. no menu can be seen, or message from the software cannot be seen. settings keys not working too.
UPDATE : Currently in development by Erofich
4. I noticed bluetooth light is flashing when device is switced on, however, when the OS is fully loaded, bluetooth is not ON. not really an issue, just an observation.
Suggestion(s)
==========
1. back key for smartphone to be enabled so we can map it to close/OK instead of having to hold home key. (will it affect phone dialing backspace? im not sure)
UPDATE : As suspected, nothing can be done here. Holding home key for OK/Close is a bit troublesome,but i guess we just have to sacrifice this for WM PRO
2. where can i download abode reader LE 2.00.261818 cab that i can choose installation path? can you please make a cab for this program?
Annoying Issues with using WM PRO without touchscreen ( Not the author's fault )
=============================================================
1. Old programs that are not designed with soft key feature is a really a PAIN. have to depend a lot on fake cursor. hopefully GreatVK will have a better solution for cursor.
UPDATE : Discovered an easier way of minimizing. double click on home key will minimize any running program.
P/S :All these testings and getting used to is giving me a headache.. will do further testings later. Great work Erofich and your team! By the way, you just appeared in engadget! http://www.engadget.com/2008/03/20/windows-mobile-6-1-professional-running-on-an-htc-startrek/

BR
any user review yet? what work, what doesnt, does everything work, etc...
My Observations so far:
-it looks like the blank notification screens seem to be fixed.
-it seems to be a bit better on memory usage & reclaiming.
-looks like PIE is in somewhat more working order as well.
-some other small things just seem to run more smoothly.
Cheers
BR

To instal from NBH
I know I have done this before but have no clue now how to extract installation file from the NBH, I've searched and used the NBH extract tool but oly extracted 1 NB file, which I don't know what to do with. Advise will be appreciated.

what are you trying to do? are you trying to flash the rom to your device? if so you don't need to extract the .nbh just click on the RomUpdateUtility.exe that is in the extracted folder (make sure your device is connected first) and go through the prompts.
EDIT:
so I just download and saw that update utility isn't there. I will try to upload for you.
EDIT:
so change this just from .zip to .rar and extract to a folder, then exact/put michy's ruu_signed.nbh into that folder, click the updateutility and follow the promts.
any problems you might have just state so. or send me a private message
You're very Helpful

That was very helpful of you, I've downloaded the file and did not have to add rar extension as I simply unzipped and moved the NBH into same file. I can't say thank you enough, been on this for past 3 hours, now It's updating. Cheers.
Thanks again Michy.
Yes, if troubles just download Michy's 21198 file and replace Nbh with this current one since the old one had installer in it. Works fine.
Definitely seems faster even after programs loaded. Incoming calls/sms don't seem to cause slowness with notifications. Very smooth.
Active Synch problems persist, works like a charm the first time then after any soft reset cannot get to resume synching
Noticed that Garmin Mobile XT's attempts to launch but doesn't. After a soft reset it launches then freezes. Will continue to test other applications to see what's going on.
enjoy it tonight .
he he
thanks more
Hello,Michy:
Thanks for ur effor on athena.
I have installed beta3 and beta4 on my device. There is a problem on both roms. When I play xvid(avi) files by tcpmp, there is always error message, tcpmp has trouble on wav(sound) output. The video is ok, but there is no sound. After I use tcpmp to play avi video, the whole device has no sound output, what I can do is to reboot my device.
Anyway, it's a great rom, thanks again.
Great work Michy!
Here is what I found until now:
1) Link of Menu settings in Settings/Personal doesn't work at all.
2) Link of Wow Settings, USB to PC, SMS Mode, ROM information in Settings/System doesn't work after the 2nd boot, but if you reboot again problem solved (4th now and no problem).
4) In Sounds & Notifications when you open it says that the ring tones are corrupted and you can't exit the application, problem solved on the 4th reboot after I opened the same tab from Phone/Options/.
5) Battleship's and moBlue's lower screen missing on landscape mode.
6) There seems to be a mess up with the VGA drivers and the enabling of X7510 Autorotate Service and the Submenu. The screen gets distorted in the upper half part. 5th reboot now and seems like problem solved, for now, but from the 3rd reboot I have disabled the Submenu.
7) After a while of using the ROM the Program memory goes almost to zero.
8) Is it my idea or the VGA drivers don't perform so well???
9) Can't confirm sync problem since I didn't had anything yet 5th sync and going well.
10) When pressing on the power button on the upper right corner I can't open the power menu, the link is broken???
Again great work!
downloading now
downloading now...beta3 had a problem with the threaded sms, once they build up in a conversation it becomes a nightmare to send an sms or to just close the conversation after reading one! hope this is fixed
Always a reminder to HARD reset at least once after a new ROM!
Ringtone issue is fixed for me
Active Synch works great, then seems to break after a soft reset. I haven't even had to soft reset since yesterday though so we'll see.
Performance seems a LOT better this go round.
Spanish Rom or Multilang?
I test it and work fine,but Do you will make multiling rom or spanich rom.
thanks
Removing Voice Commander
Is there a way to remove or disable voice commander so it will not interfere with MSVC?
exellent rom michy, its just super sweet! I was gonna write a whole list of stuff, but I might do it later from the phone. keep up the good work.
I have to say that TouchPal now works with this build flawlessly, no hickups, it even seems faster than on 6.1 too. happy camper here.

Finally Working Bluetooth problem
For ATOM/ATOM PURE ONLY
Download link moved to post #2
Step by step upgrading
NOTE: These steps only apply if you have an ATOM/ATOM Pure.
Basically, there are three steps to flash a custom ROM to your ATOM.
1. Choose and download your choice of custom ROMs
2. Flash the custom ROM to your Atom using the Device Software Update Utility (DSSU)
3. Flash the custom ROM using MiniSD
Preparation
Backup your personal information using a program such as PIM Backup (freeware). Also make sure your phone has at least a 50% charge. You need M$ ActiveSync 4.5 for XP or Windows Mobile Device Center for VISTA and 7 to upgrade your device through PC.
Please read through this guide and download the all the necessary files beforehand. That way, you know exactly what you're getting into.
Choose and download your custom ROM
There are many, many custom ROMs out there for the Atom.
Look through the threads and find a ROM that you like. Custom ROMs differ in their preinstalled software, system settings, performance tweaks, and more.
ROMs usually come compressed in a .zip file. Extract the downloaded ROM file to somewhere on your hard drive temporarily in preparation for the next step.
Flash Custom ROM Using DSSU
Copy the custom ROM file (usually came with 6 files) to C:\WINDOWS\Temp folder you just extracted.
Once you've got everything hooked up correctly, run the Device Software Update Utility (DSSU).exe program inside of the C:\WINDOWS\Temp folder you just copied. Follow the onscreen instructions to flash the custom ROM to your phone. Reboot your phone at the end and you're finished. Enjoy the new custom ROM!
In case you can't update the ATOM in active mode, you may need to update by entering bootloader mode. Hold the down power and camera button and use your stylus to press reset button at the same time until you see monochrome bootloader screen. Then connect your phone via USB cable to your computer.
Follow the onscreen instructions to flash the custom ROM to your phone. Reboot your phone at the end and you're finished. Enjoy the new custom ROM!
Flash Custom ROM Using MiniSD
*Not recommended
Here's the step how to flash your Atom using MiniSD.
1. Extract downloaded custom ROM to somewhere on your harddrive.
2. Cut first 12byte header of diskimage_Ver.nb0 using hex editor.
3. Rename diskimage_Ver.nb0 to diskimg.nb0
4. Rename ExtendedROM.img to extended.img
4. Copy both files diskimg.nb0 and extended.img to your miniSD
Now, hold the down power and camera button and use your stylus to press reset button at the same time until you see monochrome bootloader screen. The Atom will flash the new ROM automaically. Once it done, setup the device and enjoy the new custom ROM.
Big thanks to HelloWorld, [email protected], Tj's and all atom tester...

Thanks Glossy.....wow first one in line..........
Downloading now and will flash it later.....will update you from the try outs.
Good work though!
I'm wondering and really hope if this is very CLEAN, FAST & STABLE WM6.5 ROM in LOW BATTERY CONSUMPTIONS for O2 XDA Atom. Thanks before GlossyX1, you're the Atom ROM masterpiece too!
Wow! Great!
Thank you for this new build. Will try soon...
Have a try and gimme some report...
Gloss,
Tried for half a day now, this is what I have :
- overall, this built is much better than the previous, in terms of memory and battery
- overall functions and programs ran smoothly and no problems
- calls and receiving calls all good
- I can't seem to set the ringer mode to ring and vibrate but the phone by default now will ring and vibrate even if not set for vibrate, so no complains there
- persian blue works nicely to compensate for WM6.5 not able to locate any bluetooth device to beam
- Tested and still unable to sync/add more than 2 bluetooth devices, but at least I managed to get activesync working and also my handsfree, that's all I want anyway.
- taps and display are all fast, no issues there.
- booting from hard and soft reset are coming up nicely now
- one advice for user of this ROM is don't try to unlock the Extended ROM and use, the Extended ROM not very stable and when it crash, you will have problem reseting and booting your device, takes a long time and a few soft resets
But overall for me, this is a good, clean and stable ROM(forgetting about the bluetooth issue). Thanks to Glossyx1 and Helloworld1.............
Let's hope someone comes up with a permanent fix for the bluetooth issue, then this will be the defacto WM6.5 for Atom's!

What do you mean by unlock the EXTENDEDRom? I use this ROM for several days and found no problem on my device. Now I uninstalled PersianBluetooth to save more memory.
Did you found another issue? Has anyone else try this ROM?
I am in the road right now and im gonna try it tonight when i got home. one thing i would like to know if it is possible to install Spb Mobile Shell (current version is 3.5) and install MSkip ProPlus Elegance skin since I like this skin so much? if it is possible, what is the xda atom resolution based on the list QVGA, WQVGA, VGA, WVGA? sorry not familiar with and this is a bit off topic but I am consider sticking on this rom until such time that there is a solution for the bluetooth issue.

Waiting for your feed. I'm not tested yed to install SPB mobile, but there's no issue when I install another cab application. You have to try it by your self and give us a report. ATOM is QVGA device. thanks
Gloss,
What I mean by unlocking the Ext ROM is that I installed the unlock extended cab file so that the Ext ROM will be visible via file explorer or Resco explorer. Unless the cab I am using is not working properly for WM6.5(it's meant for WM6) but after I unlock it and became visible, I installed a few application on the Ext ROM to try, it was working fine until I need to soft reset the device(as some application do), then the Ext ROM is no longer visible and takes a long time to reboot(think OS can't get at the Ext ROM). Well, other issues is as my previous post, the ring mode can't set to ring and vibrate but it vibrates anyway. Then the same problem with bluetooth not able to add more than 2 devices still there. Otherwise I would say all is prefect.
As for SPB Mobile Shell, I tried installing it before under Helloworld's ROM(21869) before but does not work. The application installed okay but just could not get it to run, do not know why? Maybe some software conflict?
Add application
Hi Gloss,
Where or how can I add applications(.exe) manually in WM6 to the program or Today menu section? Is there a way? I am trying to add some other application like Torch Light, Chess games etc.
So far so good your ROM........(up till now)....
Vince

I see, you can't unlock the EXTRom as it is configured automatically in a file named config.txt. So, every chef has configured it depend on what it is configured in config.txt to EXTRom. Another thing, don't ever use other EXTrom but what is it included on ROM package, it wont work.
For the Ring mode, I can set it as usual in ring mode. Just go to setting->sound and notification->incoming call. Not working??? Try this, set to ring and vibrate, restart and set to ring.
Bluetooth??? Need some magic
I just tried to install SPB 3.5 and it works as well

No you cant, while run standalone application (.exe) you wont see any shorcut because it not registered to registry and doesn't have any shortcut (lnk). You can try to build CAB file and set all shortcut in (initflash.txt) for eq to put TorchLight.exe then write it down Directory("\Windows\Start Menu\Programs\"):-File("Torch.lnk","\Windows\TorchLight.lnk"), it will show Torch on Start Menu->Programs
Try this to make a CAB file http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=400221
Yeap, learned that after unlocking it today....had to reflash again and the 2nd time I did not unlock it, all fine after that. I was hoping to use some of the available memory on Ext ROM, so no choice then.
Thanks for the link for making cab, will go thru the thread and learn some cab making...
Cheers and keep at it......good ROM there.....clean and stable! The way it should be!
So bluetooth handfree is not working again

It usual happen while atom run out of memory. My ROM preinstalled with PersianBluetooth, when you try to install custom home screen eq SPB then your screen goes white. Here is a tip for you: Try to remove PersianBlue and see what happen. I'm not recommended to use any custom Home Today screen because WM6.5 use more resource than you can expected.

I don't have any bluetooth device, test it by your self and give me feedback.
Cheers...
Dragon,
Bluetooth handsfree is fine, working. Only issue is choose your bluetooth devie wisely as you can only add 2 bluetooth device only at the moment. So for me, luckily 2 is just enough, one for activesync and one for handfree(bluetooth). The reason is after you added the 2nd bluetooth device, you can't see add new device tap anymore.
Good luck....
