Version 1.1 of the Special Edition ROM is now out:
Fixed:
- Based on O2 3.17.03 ROM: annoying reply to SMS bug fixed
- Everyone can now use GPRS
- Pocket IE opens GPRS connection
- Serial ActiveSync now works
- Minor issues and cosmetics
New:
- Brand new version of dbView tool
- EzWAP2
- Our own band switch tool for US users, switch between all three bands
(no guarantee your hardware supports it, but at least you can now try)
This is now officially the coolest ROM for you, no matter where you live...
See the mkrom page for details on how to build this ROM (difficult), or wait for some kind soul to build the EXE, and just download and run it (easy).
Thanks a lot for your effort. I've really enjoyed the possibility to create my own ROM.
Is it possible to get a look on the source code of that welcome.exe app? So far it 's the only closed thing in your package.
thanks
XDA-developers ROM v1.1 installer
Thanks to Andre, who was online during the announcement and who sent me a message, I must have broken some speed records:
Click here to download a new and tested version of Special Edition ROM v1.1. Simply run the exe and presto...
This version fixes most if not all of the problems some people had with the 1.0 release. Thanks to the XDA-developers for doing such cool work, and for making their instructions easy to follow...

The source is online: http://xda-developers.com/mkrom/welcome101-src.zip . The source for the welcome in the previous ROM was available too. Look at the mkrom page for details...
Let us know if you come across cool tricks we could incorporate in our ROMs too.
oh, to my previous post:
nevermind, my wish is granted, found the sources on the mkrom page.
thanks
update
jeff summers, you are a prince amongst men! Ta!
This is wonderful.
My PIE & ActiveSync over GPRS are now working well with this ROM + AT&T SX56 radion on my T-mobile USA device.
Thanks again XDA Developers, and Jeff for being so 'quick' with his help!
cheers,

Jeff you're like greased lightning!!! Well done to the boys and girls at xda-developers for this update, it seriously rocks!! MaxIreland and "guest" refered to a prog called sms-char-counter....
freeware tool written from a user at a german xda forum. it's an sms-char-counter

Any more genious people out there who know where to get this from?? I'll learn german if I have to! Maybe it would be a good addition to the next version of the ROM!!
Respect to you all at xda-developers.com

Hoorah, the SMS caller identity thing has been fixed

Thank you
thank you
OK silly question...
I am here in the uk...
Last time i tried to flash my xda with the radio upgrade i lost all functions on the device and had to send it back to the service centre to be repaired...
If i run the exe that has beed kindly created is there any chance of screwing up my device again!...
I would be running via USB and the docking station that came with the decive!..
I want to do this but am a little worried after the last incident!...

thx for your great work.
is there any "diff" tool for ce, so that i know what ezwap2.5 or other programs (like an sms-counter) are installing exactly for using with mkrom?
if i got you right, then i need all files installed and all registry-entries?
is there any install-tracker on ce?
Jabba
Two questions:
Is EzWap version 2.5 MMS or 2
When you say:
"- Everyone can now use GPRS"
What do you mean exactly by this ?
Because we have a serious problem with our local operator: they "upgraded" the GPRS system (by Erickson) last week, and since then, all GPRS on Pocket PC's stopped connecting. Is the new ROM the solution ?
ezwap 2.5 has got MMS
is there a program on the new ROM which can open pdf files instead of acrobat reader?
Thanks Jeff and you wonderfull developers, This ROM is great and I didn't have to mess arround in UNIX to install it.
thx man gonna try it soon !
installed it but the autoconfig still doesn't work on my xda ?
SMS-Counter Software to include in ROM
u'll find it here (german thread in forum):
http://www.ppc-welt-community.de/showthread.php?s=&threadid=21372&highlight=smscounter
Try it.... it sits as small programm in the taskbar naming "start" (because it's right over the start button).. it runs always... taking nearly no cpu-time. when u start to write a sms then it begins to count (like nokia).

Hmmm..... Just a quick question. IF i sent you a bootloader pic and a theme (all in proper format) would you be willing to add it to your kitchen?
It's a Star Trek Theme/bootpic I created.
I can't for the life of me get my kitchen to work at all.
yeah, of course, your contributions are always welcome! send it to: [email protected]
Hi all,
For some reason php is acting funny on my friend's box, using 100% of the available processor cycles every time it is invoked. We're working on fixing this, but I must say I have very little time these next few weeks. I suggest everyone that needs to cook using Yorch's kitchen for now.
Yorch: shall I just forward to yours for now?

Jeff
not a problem Jeff, yeah, you can forward to mine. Hey I also need your help, I'm trying to add ROM 4.00.21 to my kitchen, We can't figure out how, if you could please email me or pm
Hi Jeff and York, im a newbie, and also want to make a kitchen too. can you show me how to download and install on my Linux Server?
thanks. [email protected]
Hi Yorch
Please add in yours ROM-kitchen - O2 ROM WM2003 4.00.11
i went to http://www.yorch.net and customised a rom but was not able to find how to download it.
can any one help me.
I want to run XDAunlock.exe on my phone when i run it now it says unable to get unlock code. some one said that i should upgrade my rom to xda-special rom-1.2 but i dont have linux. i downloaded jeffs executable rom but it was giving errors cannot find rom image.
Can you add a PPC 2002 Siemens SX56 rom to your kitchen (www.yorch.net), I tried the T-mobile but it doesn't have the same feel.
Can I unlock the phone using XDA unlock from the ROM created in your kitchen?
Is any one working on cooked 4.00.21 roms with working programs in the rom? :mrgreen:

If anyone knows where to download the WMP 10 for PPC plz plz urgently reply? I have win 2003 SE and would like to have WMP 10??
Thanks
I'm pretty sure that there isn't a stand-alone version of WMP10 but all the latest ROMs for WM2003SE contain it.
Dear,
do you have the latest ROM or know how i can get my paws on it???
Thanks
Wiki, baby, wiki.
http://wiki.xda-developers.com/
What device do you have? I noticed that you posted elsewhere that you wanted to install a BlueAngel ROM. If so, the latest ROM can be found at http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=BA_1.42.00_Upgrade
ok, no cab, no official upgrade. But if. some rom have wmp10 compatible with WM2003se I am sure that we can find files to copy somewhere and registry settings to change. Does somebody have already done this job ?
I tried to register at ce4arab.com to download O2 Plus V2.3.
Is there anybody that can download it for me? Since my Arab is very bad
I think I did manage to register but even with online translation tools I wasn't able to download the file.
Here is the link:
http://www.ce4arab.com/vb7/showthread.php?t=67549
Thanks in advance!
here u go man
sorry,this is the file
Thanks, also found it in the Atom section. Is yours a "universal" version?
Havn't been able to find a patch for this one.
There's only a patch available for O2 Plus 2.0.
Im not sure,I downloaded it from the link that u gave me.
BTW,whats ur device?
I own an HTC Wizard and an HTC Prophet.
When I try to install the program it tells me that I there has to be a program called "connect" on my device. Older versions also had this message, but there was a patch to work around this.
I will see if I'm able to solve this problem
hope u'll be able to solve it.
i want to ask u a question,did u manage to put the o2 media plus software on ur prophet?
I havn't tried O2 Media Plus, but I will have a look for you to see if I can get it and make it work on the HTC Prophet
thanks in advance,i'll look in ce4arab,maybe they cooked something like this
found one!!
this one worked for my prophet(qteq rom),here u go
Great find! Will try this later on
So is there a working version for the Wizard?
It will work on HTC himalaya?
dont know
i really dont know if it will work on the himalaya,like i said i've tryed it on my prophet with the new qteq rom

You should run this on PPC not on your PC. Just click that file on PPC and install on main memory.
Please tell me if this will work on the Wizard.

Why should someone offer himself for your curiosity?
Yes it works on the Wizard/Prophet
Does anyone feel like making some individual cabs for each or some of the plugins?
I know Last Call and I think Calendar have been done before, but what about Battery/Card/Memory, etc?
Saves space and is more convenient.
I wanted to downgrade my pocket pc os to it's original rom because the windows mobile 5 does not have a transcriber.thanks
Hello nfstanton,
I don't have any i-Mate ROMs, but would be willing to search if I know more about what you need. I bet the following information might help others want to help you...
Could you list the model name or number of your i-Mate?
Are you trying to downgrade to 2003 or 2002? With or without phone? What language ROM?
Any chance you know the ROM version number that you want?
Wishing you success.
ph10b windows mobile 2003..thanks
LOL - I see that is a hard to find ROM... HTC Worldwide doesn't even list the Himalaya on their Support page anymore. Other resources I checked don't have it in repository either.
One quick fix may be to Download the install package for Transcriber direct from M$. It is listed for WM 2002, but may work under WM 5.
http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/...c3-2eee-41e3-9339-f7b303f4b386&DisplayLang=en
They have it in English, French and German...
Or
Here on xda I found an "All Himalaya WM 6.x ROMs" thread by user maggie
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=379017
Lots of ROMs in multiple languages to choose from...
Some of the links might still be good... Maybe an Upgrade instead of a Downgrade??? Especially since WM 2003 is next to be phased out of support by M$.
P.S.: I'll still poke around looking for the WM 2003 a bit... Post back if either option above solves your problem so I don't keep searching needlessly.
Here is a Blog with info and working download link for a cooked version of WM2003 ROM which installs on all Himalaya... (It appears to be an English Language ROM)

And a working download link for "himalaya_wm2003se_upgrade"

Thank You VERY MUCH for helping me You're like a angel sent from above i will never forget you
Yay!!!!
I'm glad you found an answer. Honestly, that post made my day. Thanks Bro.
There's a little problem
I'm having difficulty changing the operator in the WM2003 nbk and radio files..it says that i have to use command prompt and enter the words in the instructions so i entered them and it says that it doesn't recognize the syntax...How do you really change the operator ID of the ROM? Please elaborate the steps..if you can.Thanks
I'm honestly not up to speed on Radio Stacks... There is a large group of threads for your device here:

Or maybe try the xda wiki pages?
