[QUESTION] Help needed to enable 567mb ram - HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I am currently working on a new ROM based on the following:
HTC HD2
OSKitchen zero 1.31 beata 8
Stock rom Leo 1.66 WWE
Sense 2016
OS: 21869
Radio 2.10.50.28_2
WWE only
I am currently trying to enable the 576mb of ram. I have download tmous rom: 2.13.53 and extracted the nk.exe folder. I replaced my nk.exe folder, with the folder from 2.13.53.
I then compliled my rom. ROM compiles successfully and deploys to phone. I can use phone fine, I can see in the hardware info that the ram is 576mb, but when I try to use the dial pad to make a phone call the phone freezes after typing in the first key and I have to remove the battery.
I have also tried the new 2.12 radio but no difference. I am in the UK and am on 02.
Any assistance would be appreciated.

This thread is terminated. Plz see http://forum.xda-developers.com/viewtopic.php?p=65410 for the sucessor
Hi Edsub,
I have just downloaded 1.72.901 of yours and try to upgrade my mda 2 from t-mob.
what i have is te last beta version of t-mob 1.72.wwe boot version is 1.02
when i try to upgrade it with your version i get the following error
ERROR 122: EXTENDED IMAGE FILE CHEKSUM ERROR
Can you tell me what is it I am doing wrong???
Thanks
Hello edsub,
Does the 1.17 Radio version works with the 1.72 Fra, or it needs a french 1.17 Radio ?
Is that possible to upgrade only the radio ?
You can use this radio with your device. No language specifics in it.
(as I was told)
The checksum suprises me.
I can open the ms_.nbf with er2003edit with the normal key.
can you?

Ok, and is it possible to install the 1.17 alone, without upgradeing all the device ?
Did you notice differences between 1.14 and 1.17 ?
You can upgrade every part separately from the others.
Just delete the NBF's you dont want to upgrade
Radio.nbf = Radio ROM
NK.nbf = OS ROM
MS_.nbf = ExtROM
Does this upgrade of the Radio only requires a hard-reset at the end ?
did a radio upgrade only
(removed the OS and Extended rom bkf files).
Device is dead (displays SERIAL after Cold Reboot).
Recommandation: don't do RADIO only, upgrade OS + Radio + Extended Rom whatever you're told.
btw, Extended Rom is corrupted.
I noticed the extROM was not OK.
Just uploaded a new archive wich should do the job ok.
@tde: oops, I just read that on the wiki-page
http://wiki.xda-developers.com/wiki/HimalayaRomFlashing?version=8
no problem edsub, I should have read it too before starting flashing... this is not my first upgrade so I have no real excuse
just back to my old imate 1.72WWE, it's been a while since I didn't flashed my device, this rom is really OK.
@tde, do you mean you have succesfully installed my roms or did you revert to your own?
edsub,
Are you saying that the extended rom you have developed is not ok?
Is this ROM save to load on MDA II, which has only had T-Mobile ROMs on it?
edsub, is this the ROM I requested?
Edsub
I re-flashed with the latest Rom from IMATE I had (1.72WWE), but upgraded the radio to 1.17 by the way.
Now I have to recreate a new extended ROM ...
@ Gratefuled: My ExtRom was ok, only the NBF file to be used to flash was corrupted. This means that in the first upload version of the upgrade archive (see first post inthis thread) you could simply NOT upgrade the extRom (upgrade utility refuses it).
The currently available RUU172901_eDsuBsofT.exe should be ok.
@tde: The ExtRom in the new version should be ok. The OS rom inside my archive is the same as your iMate OS rom (Qtek and iMate 1.72.00WWE OS roms are the same).
@all: Still waiting for comments on the newly uploaded archive
Home-cooked 1.72.901 upgrade package (1.72.00/1.17.00
@ Edsub,
Hi,
I have succesfuly flashed my mda 2 with your rom. It worked just fine i wil try this further and post my coments.
thanks,
keep up the good work.
I am a new qtek 2020 user.
Can i use this rom for the provider proximus here in belgium ?
Basically you can. But for the extended rom contents I would advise you to get in contact with others on Proximus for the specific network (ie GPRS) settings.
Also, you might not like the T-Mobile startup splash screen.
And: You HAVE to update the "country id" (=operator/device identifier)
.
What bootimage does it have?. Does it has the T-mobile BETA bootimage?. I don't mind the T-mobile image, just not the beta part
It has the 'normal'(ie not beta) T-Mobile boot-image.
Images were taken from 1.60.36 rom
Is this upgrade the Windows Mobile 2003 SE equivalent?
So when flashed it has the same software features as described for the Qtek 9090?
When flashed to Tmobile, can I still change the settings to telford? Has anyone don that already?
thanks

Latest WWE ROM (1.18.255.108)

According to the Wiki, the latest shipped WWE unbranded rom is 1.18.255.106, and my phone has the .108, so I just uploaded the upgrade package for that ROM (which I got from the support site (one of two here in Finland)) to the upload section of the ftp, in case someone wants it.
This version is for the "Finland and the Baltics" area, and the phone itself has the Scandinavian keyboard layout.
- Pud.0
Thanks for the shipped rom, it is exactly the same ROM version 1.18.255.3 and the same radio version 1.03.03.10, the only change is on the shipped Extended ROM version from 1.18.255.106 to 1.18.255.108.
I've updated the wiki and moved the file to safe heaven:

All roms are 'branded', also the HTC TyTN rom is branded by HTC.
Acording to the info *now* on the wiki (it will change on the future), the newest ROM is Cingular 1.34.502.1, which is dated 2006-09-21. This ROM has radio version 1.16.00.00, but the i-mate ROM dated 2006-09-08 has a newer radio version 1.20.31.10 which has been extracted so you can flash it separately if you want it on your device. The latest AKU build for the Hermes is on Cingular's ROM 1.31.502.1 which shows OS Build 14989.2.6.0, this means this is an AKU 2.6 while all the other available ROMs have AKU 2.3.
To remove the operator branding and have an 'unbranded' rom you just need to softreset before the ExtROM is installed after the device is hard-reseted.
You can install Cingular's 1.34 or 1.31 ROM (depending if you prefere AKU 2.3 or AKU 2.6) with I-mate 1.20 radio and HTC 1.18.255.106 ExtROM which will add HTC's tytn branding to your phone. This should be "the latest" rom now.

I successfully downgraded, CID unlocked and then upgraded to swap from Swedish to English, this worked like a CHARM!!
BUT!! The keyboard hacks does NOT seem to work,, heeeeeeeeeeeeeelp!!
@Pof's quote below
"To remove the operator branding and have an 'unbranded' rom you just need to softreset before the ExtROM is installed after the device is hard-reseted."
is this mean -
that i need to do first is perform the Soft reset after i have completed or successful flash a ROM from the WIKI shiped ROM list,
then make the unhide ExtRom, then remove the ExtRom operator brand, from the Extended Rom folder, then install the "unbranded" ExtRom (execute the unbrand CAB file), then the last step is do the Hard reset.
please advice.

Best WM6 Rom With TouchFLO

hi guys
i just purchased a 2nd hand dopod 818 pro of the net. i'm not too sure about the formware version but i know its running WM6 and it already has the HTC home and TouchFLO stuff installed with it. But i feel its extremely slow and laggy. got to use the overclocker to push it from 195 to 273.
This is what i was able to extract from the device info
rom version: 6.6.6.666 WWE
rom date: 23/8/07
radio version: 02.19.21
Protocol version: 4.1.13.09
ExtROM version: Transformer 1.1
is there a faster rom with WM6+Touchflo+HTC home+3d cube for use?
the speed, stability, functionality, might be difference between any type of prophet models.
some might say this rom is good for jammin, some say not to dopod.
i suggest you try some roms & flash it, then you can notice which is good for you.
also you might need to do some extra read on the rom thread. maybe you can get some clues to your curiosity.
latest roms available for prophet is wm6.1
read, read, choose, pick & flash it
i'm using shadow vista clean ver. rom by varanusvincent & iiiox (base on cloudyfa rom) on my dopod 818 pro.

hi duato
thanks for your quick reply. i was looking for something with the HTC plugins built into the rom. not as seperate cabs.
If you want to use certain rom which you think good for you but doesnt have htc plugins, you'll need to install it yourself.
Dont want cab?, so you need the OEM ver.
link to htc stuff :
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=344533
& this :
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=311225
is there an OEM rom for the HTC touch that will work with the prophet?
OEM=original equipment manufacturer.
oem is not a rom, it is a file that extract from original source to be use into other device.
i guess the htc touch files that you want is the htc home, touchflo & cube.
look for it from the link above & install. so next, your device will have the same functionality as htc touch
BEFORE that, upgrade your device with latest/newer wm6 or wm6.1 for better stability, speed etc.
read this for upgrade, give you some info :

[Request] Dutch 16-key nike WM6.1 ROM needed

If possible could someone upload the official HTC WinMo 6.1 NLD (Dutch) ROM? I had it before but my serial number no longer validates and my own provider (Hi/KPN) doesn't provide.
I flashed some experimental ROMs to see assuming I still had the file but I don't and now I need to go back for daily use again...
Check my 4shared space. In the folder misc.
Thanks a bundle, I really needed it
Is this also for the 20-key niki100?
Sure as far as I know there aren't any differences in official roms for 20 and 16 keys Nikes

[Q] How to enable stock ROM 1.66 with 576MB RAM?

Hi, I'm a newbie for ROM cooking, experienced cookers, please advise.
I'm using HD2/Leo phone, I learned how to use HSPL, flash a cooked ROM, but I can't found a Chinese traditional version of cooked ROM, so I'm start thinking of cooking the ROM my own, and what all I need is retain original 1.66 709.3 Taiwan version of stock ROM, but only to enable 576MB RAM.
I found a kitchen, oskitchen zero 1.31, use the GUI and extracted the stock ROM, and stop here, because I don't know which files need to be replaced. And BTW, the notification enhancement needed to recomod?
Experienced cookers, please advise, thanks in advance!!!
just install a TMOS radio and you have 576 mb ram
go to radio thread
Hi bountygiver, installing a TMOUS radio doesn't change anything? anymore idea?
the 2.xx radio only won't enable 576mb ram....
you also need a 2.XX-rom's nk.exe and replace the 1.66 nk.exe with it.
to ensure tmous-compatibility, you should also use os.nb.payload from 2.XX.
Thank you HD2owner, I replace v2.14 nk.exe with Tmous radio and flash it, but the boot process stop at Windows screen, now I know I should also replace the os.nb.payload.
Is there any risk of bricking my HD2 phone? I'm scared!!!

you also have to rec-mod ntconfig.dll (ext/notification enhancement).
this should fix the freeze at the windows bootscreen.
some say you have to rec-mod all modules in notification enhancement and concurrence manager but i use them as modules.
i didn't face problems until now with only rec-mod ntconfig.dll.
right click rec-mod:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=4807024
if you have a international hd2, don't worry about bricking (2.xx stock roms work on international hd2).
if you have a tmous-hd2, you should always use a 2.xx-base and according radio.
