Hi All!
First of all a short story about this ROM:
As a Charmer owner I tried all available WM6/WM6.1 ROM in this forum. All are great, but I wanted to find something like the WM6 Essential edition, but based on WM6.1. Yesterday I decided to cook my own ROM, so I selected ChrBeck's WM6.1 WWE ROM (Thanks for him!) and tried to remove all 3rd party software, but HTC applications.
I also created my kitchen (based on Molski.Biz's Wizard Kitchen - Thanks for him ).
Now, it's only a bunch of scripts, but I'll put together with a short howto and publish it here.
Version History:
v0.3
-------------------------
- Upgraded to .NETCF 3.5 (performance increased significantly)
- Added .NET Configurator
- Registry tweaks regarding performance (caches)
Download here.
v0.2:
-------------------------
- Restored original png/gif files (splash screen, default_stwater, blankbanner, etc)
- Set Windows Default as the default theme (blue)
- Restored original Arcsoft MMS Composer because the integration of the new version failed.
- Added htcutil.dll and Device Information now working
- Translated the rest of the html help files (some were in CHS)
Download here.
v0.1:
-------------------------
- Initial release
- Removed components from ChrBeck's ROM: pocketnotepad, batterybar, psshutxp, HTC Home plugin, HHC, diamond and HTC themes, TFlow
- Updated ArcSoft MMS Composer to 5.0.70.24
- Cleared Extended ROM
- Autorun.exe now in English (removed german mui file )
- Changed boot splash
- Set WM6.1 green as default theme
Download here.
Known issues:
- Still nothing

Instructions:
Download and run self extracting exe. This will create a directory with the ROM image and the required tools. Run Update_ROM.bat and follow the instructions on the screen (if any).
Remember: You have to flash your device back to WM5 before using this upgrade!
Disclaimer: This ROM is not official. You can use it on your device, but I take no responsibility for any damage!
Remark: HTCUtil.dll was removed, because it's already in version 0.2.

Nice to see your first ROM here. I'll test it soon.
Looks sweet Will try A.S.A.P.
Interesting thing happens:
Installed .NETCF 3.5 in version 0.2 and selected as the default NETCF provider. The result is a significant speed gain!
The plan is to integrate NETCF into the ROM...More comes later.

EDIT: Successfully integrated NETCF3.5 and NETCF2.0 with only 1MB memory penalty:
great to see my follower :-D
I'm reverting back to charmer, maybe I'll try cooking once more - but untill that, I'll use your rom...go on man
P.S.: IMHO touchflo is todays standard - wouldn't be better to include it? It works really good on chrbeck's rom...
Thanks nocturne.op.15!
I know that almost every ROM includes TF, but I wanted to create a clean and fast version of WM6.1.
Maybe once I cannot optimize my ROM any longer, I'll integrate such kind of tools.
PS.: Nice to hear, that you using my ROM on your charmer...
well, still found two things from chrbeck's rom - ugly (and unusable due to missing smartdial) dialer and calc skin
but it's good rom - and a good work, go on with cleanup
If you will try to perform extreme cleanup as I did in Essentials, you may find this usefull: http://www.dependencywalker.com/
it works pretty good...
As WM6.5 "released" to public, I will focused on to get WM6.5 running on charmer, so 6.1 pure development stopped for now. (but not forever )
HELP!
This is my first devise on WM!!
May you wright how to do it with 0.3 version. Everything you can - what I need to do, step by step?
Sorry to say that su unfriendly but READ THE STICKYS. We have a how to there: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=513426
The first part with the old Utility is the right for your Device.
Compliments to rmagyar,
Stable, Fast and very nice ROM for my HTC Charmer...
Speed and stability first of all..
Two comment:
1) Bluetooth is not receiving from other PPC machines!

2) Sms threading? possible to add?

Change Log :
Notes: This ROM includes Touch InCall Screen Tweak which turns off screen while calling (placed the device near ears). It worked fine for me but I doubt it will for you as well so if it doesn't, please disable it. To do so, go to Start -> Utilities -> Touch InCall Screen Tweak Config -> Options 'tab' -> Tick Always On -> Save. You can find more settings of the same app over there.
Some of apps listed about (Marked as 'In UC') doesn't include in the ROM. However, the app cabs are bundled in the ROM package and maintained to be used for XDA_UC_NET. For more info, read the readme text file in Xtras folder included the ROM package. For more info about XDA_UC_NET app, visit here
Its because some user like Opera version 9.7 and some version 10. Both cannot be included or if any one of them, users will have troubles using/installing other version(s). So this is the better way I hope.

Hi guys,
This is another full WM 6.5.3 JE2 23148 ROM, this time with improved, new versions of Samsung applications. Let me know your thoughts about it. Its again a plain, vanilla 6.5.3 ROM so I don't think screen shots are necessary.
Link : Download from Megaupload.com
Here is what is in the ROM :
- Windows Mobile 6.5, CE OS 5.2.23148 (Build 23145.5.3.11), with Start button at bottom.
- Full JE2 + Omnia 2 JD1 combination ROM with Optimized CSC (1.86 MB only, will work with other ROMs too, though not all maybe), LZX Compression and 12 MB Pagepool for optimum performance.
- Apart from Samsung Widgets, Samsung Today, Dialer, Keyboard and USSD popup executables, all the other samsung apps that had problem with 6.5.x positioning have also been taken from Omnia 2 JD1 rom and are working absolutely great. Touch Player is specially very good with its improved library. So overall this ROM wont feel unpolished like previous one.
- Phone Memory : Approx 143 MB, RAM: About 70 MB on start
- Schaps Advanced Configuration Tool (Highly versatile tweaking utility)
- DotFred's Task Manage 3.3 for WM 6.5 (Highly useful and detailed task manager for power users)
- GPRS Counter application from JE2 ROM (Useful for keeping track of GPRS data usage for limited GPRS plan users. Can show stats in chart as well as report format)
- Midomi Application from Omnia II (Music information recognition software)
- MortScript 4.2 (A very popular scripting runtime for Windows Mobile)
- OpenNETSDF v2.3.0.21 (A framework that complements .NET CF, needed to run many modern .NET based apps).
- SQL Server CE 3.1 (Although SQL Server is always there on Windows mobile in background, this version supports a GUI tool, Query Analyzer, using which you can run SQL commands on your phone )
- XDA Shutdown v1.01 with Black Theme (Shutdown, Restart, Sleep or Hibernate your mobile with ease.)
- AutoClose Patch 1.1 (Enhances the way memory allocation/deallocation happens on Omnia, useful for keeping phone running for long time without restart)
- Bluetooth Toggle Application (One touch toggling of bluetooth)
- MADE Text Editor (A simple text editor that supports both ANSI and Unicode text formats)
- PPC PIM Backup (Great Personal Information (contacts, messages, calender, task etc) backup utility)
- Pocket RAR (Archiving utility supporting RAR and ZIP formats)
- Simple Regedit (A powerful registry editor, despite the word simple in its name )
- HTCSensorSDK.dll and LibGLES_CM.dll (Needed for accelerometer and OpenGLES v1 support in games and manilla kind of apps)
- Microsoft Voice Commands (from WM 6.5.5 last build, the latest version available. Recognizes Asian accents quiet well, including Indian english )
- Latest MyPhone application, No need to install afterwards.
- UTDrv TTF driver for fixing Bold Fonts issue with the new Font Engine of 231xx builds. For more information, search on XDA.
- Bubble Breaker game added from COM2. WM 6.5.3 no longer comes with it.
- Tweaks
----Orientation Settings Enabled
----Titanium Enabled by Default
----JBlend Font Size fix
----WinMO default Settings icon enabled
----Disabled lines between tradional today plugins
----Enabled Lockscreen Picker in Settings>Lockscreen
----Disabled Samsung Large Titlebar for enabling Windows default large icon title bar dropdown
----Enabled Samsung Launcher (that shows up automatically when keyboard is slided) by default)
----Other Misc performance tweaks.
Please note that as with my previous roms, this was for also my personal use, so everything is according to my preferences. If you feel your preferences are same, use it else ignore it. Consider this a disclaimer
Cheers!
PS: Its a self extracting executable, just run the exe, extract the files at some path on your hard drive and you will get the nb0 (PDA) and CSC file for flashing.
Can you tell us if this is for i8000 or other Omnia 2 model?
Dear Sumit,
Stupid as I may sound but though have been using and abusing winmo since 2008(HTC Diamond and Touch Pro & Now Samsung B7610) have never attempted flashing custom ROMs aprt for updates provided by HTC for both the devices mentioned here. As my phone is now out of warranty and Samsung have NOT obliged with the promised update of 6.5 for B7610 in India( I am at Jaipur by the way); wud like very much to upgrade my device. Request you to kindly guide me ona step by step guide on flashing this as I am a complete novice. I may call /mail u if convenient for the same. Would be a great help.
Darkyogi...
Can u post Some Screenies ??
Tried to flash my GT-I8000 with your NB0 & CSC, but, after rebooting, the screen halted on the SAMSUNG logo and nothing happened afterwords. Flashing again with another ROM to put the phone in LIVE state. Did you ever test it on an O2 buddy?

Acronyms
Extracted from WiKi for Easy Reference.
CID Lock (aka vendor lock): put on your device by the manufacturer to prevent installation of a ROM not released by them.
HardSPL: This modified bootloader allows a much safer flashing process to take place since it reduces the chance of permanently bricking your device. It also removes the need to CID Unlock the device since it ALWAYS reports SuperCID when flashing. See the official thread for more info.
Hard Reset: Similar to a soft reset, by performing a hard reset you completely wipe your device and restore it to the position it was in when you first turned the device on after it was purchased or after a new ROM is flashed.
Radio: The radio stack is responsible for the phone functionality of the device. This includes GPRS, GSM, UMTS, and GPS operations as well as camera functionality. The version you use depends on who your carrier is as users have reported versions working better on one carrier than the other. The wiki pages contain the latest versions available to download and install.
ROM: The ROM holds the Operating system and other components such as the bluetooth and wifi stacks. The ROM is accompanied by the Radio, Ext_ROM, SPL and IPL. Carriers such as T-mobile or Vodaphone taylor the ROM to their specifications and version numbers do not carry the same meaning across different carriers. IF the carrier you use supports the device well they will usually release regular ROM updates.
RUU - ROM Upgrade Utility: It’s the s/w used on your PC to do a ROM upgrade for your PPC;
IPL - Initial Program Loader: It’s the bootloader for PPC. It boots up SPL;
SPL - Secondary Program Loader: Loads the actual OS;
SSPL: SSPL is a modified bootloader which is loaded into RAM when run, this allows us to overwrite any aspect of the ROM, Radio or Bootloader far easier than using mtty.

Some Problem
Thanks for sharing
but there is some problem:
1) Alarm Sound doesn't work if you change it from htc sense; I mean you can change it from setting/sound and notification.
2) after installing Persian Language pack my sms won't be shown correctly but anything else in other program is right. also I can't install updates for HTC Messaging.
and is it possible to reduce space between Lines in any program

Hello Mahdian57, Thanks for your input .
For #1: It does work for me and another device. I have set the alarm for 5:00am and it did ring today morning . Let me know is that the place you are referring to?
For #2: I have very less idea about the SMS issue of your locale language. I will try to get some input from my friends and let you know.
Which HTC Messaging update you are referring to?
Reg Space between lines: Are you talking about the Start menu Programs that shows 3 icon and you want to see more?
If this is true: As I tried to be very close to stock ROM, but I will still try to have this in next build.
Thanks.
Watch for the next release tomorrow...
Hello Friends,

Thanks.

Alarm: U must change it from setting/Clock & Alarms not directly from home Screen
SMS: version 0.7 with Secure box
Space: in Default ROM spaces are tight together but You've added extra spaces between Lines (something like "line and Paragraph spacing" tool in Microsoft Word to change space between lines or paragraph)
I have also another question, is it really work "pocket mode"?
because it works based on proximity sensor as HTC said to me

Thanks for the detail info Mahdian57,
Alarm:
I have tested from Manila - Home, Start -> Alarm and Settings -> Clock & Alarm. Actually the Settings - Clock & Alarm uses the Start - Alarm program.
ALL 3 are working. But I think the alarm program (Start - Alarm) has some bug .
I may remove that in my next build or fix the issue.
SMS:
I have never tested the Secure SMS.
On search I get the URL: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=741179
That looks promissing, I will try that some time and have in the ROM .
Space: I am really sorry if I have not understood you, but if the issue is spacing between the start menu icons (program icons), than: I think the spacing is same as the stock ROM. Please confirm.
Pocket Mode:
Never tested so deeply, but I agree about the HTC's proximity sensor working mode.
Thanks.

Have you marked the 'Use unicode when necessary' checkbox in message settings? This may solve your problem.
I confirm that there are issues with the alarm sound if you switch from HTC Sense to the Windows Mobile default view or vice versa. Alarm sounds do not activate and you have to reset all those sounds (for each alarm if you set several alarms). But I am not sure that this problem can be solved in the Windows registry. Perhaps it lies somewhere deeper (in DLLs, for example).

if you use your wp7-hd2 like this, you will experience much better battery life.

to make some things more clear for noobs:
hd2 rom structure is like this with wp7:
-HSPL 2.08* (hacked 1st stage bootloader, needed for magldr, other hspl versions won't work)
--1ST BOOTSPLASH SCREEN**
--2ND BOOTSPLASH SCREEN**
--WM RADIO ROM (2.15 advised; there are TWO 2.15 radio roms! tmous and htc! flash according to your device)
---MAGLDRsecond stage bootloader by cotulla to flash/boot wp7 or android
----WP7 (rom) or Android (rom/sdcard)
OR
---WM CUSTOM ROM (nand) (OS.nb packed in unsigned nbh container)
current magldr cannot boot winmobile roms; magldr OR winmo only possible now)
magldr and wp7 does NOT touch hspl ,wm radio rom and both bootsplashes.
flashing wp7 to your hd2 will format you sdcard (make backup first or use second card!)
(data.zip) contains WP7 radio rom too
----wp7 radio rom (part00.bin in data.zip)
----wp7 rom (part04.bin in data.zip)
how to hard-reset wp7: vol up & vol down after magldr boot wp7
for big wp7 roms (part04.bin in data.zip >290mb)
i advise to enable "use last 24mb or nand" before flashing in magldr->services
the first radio rom is very important for WM & WP7.
use tmous 2.15 radio on tmous hd2
use htc 2.15 radio on htc hd2
to flash/change wm radio rom (hspl needed to flash radio rom independent):
put radio rom in root of sdcard (had problems with cards above 8gb; named leoimg.nbh)
boot into hspl (vol down before magldr) and confirm flashing of radio.
a more easy variant is to connect usb in hspl mode and flash with leoadvancedruu
wm radio roms can be found here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=21624872&postcount=2451
to change wp7 rom's radio rom:
replace part00.bin in data.zip of your wp7 rom and reflash data.zip (magldr->flash mode)
*if you have htc hd2 with stock rom (3.14.40X.X with spl3.03), you need to flash 1.66 rom from sdcard first.
place 1.66 rom as leoimg.nbh on sdcard and boot into spl (vol down on boot).
confirm installation of 1.66 stock rom. then you will be ready to install hspl 2.08.
**second bootsplash is displayed after magldr.
some custom roms change your bootsplash (no custom roms should touch them imo)
you can find some bootsplashes in my wm rom thread (hd2).
they can also be created with barins splashtool and osb7 nbh generator.
they can be flashed with sdcard method or with leoadvancedruu.
