Search the forum. It has been discussed plenty.

The Extended ROM is a special part of the ROM, that is used of the providers to add their own and additonal files, that have to be installed on the first use of this device. It only have Programs and Reg-Settings in it. Afetr the installtion of this programs, the Memory Part of the extended ROM is useless for the device. You can't access the extended ROM and you can not save data on this memory....
Therefore the bigStorage hack is used to free this memory-part.

Many thanks!
So... I'm Italian and I buoght my Jam with std Italian ROM.
I like to have Engl leanguage on all my devices so I hack the Country ID and I installed the WWE ROM.
It works fine but I lost some of Italian configuration and some applications (e.g. eTrust antivirus)...
I think that these applications are contained on Italian Extended ROM... is it right?
If is it right... can I install the Italian extended ROM in the WWE ROM?
Or... can I extract the eTRust antivirus and install it on my WWE ROM?

Yes, you should be able to install the programs of the italian extended ROM on the WWE ROM. Since most of the tools are os independet it should be no big problem.
The QtekS100_ITA_1.03.151 ExtRom is on the FTP. If your version was newer or anything else, than you have to get the files by yourself.....
Stefan

Great!
I've got i-mate Jam with the last WWE ROM downloaded fron the clubimate site...
I'd like to install the extended rom's app of Jam instead of S100...
Is possible to download the Jam's ext rom? ANy link?
Many thanks guys!

Error MoDaCo_NoData with Bepe's WM6

I have the latest WWE light Rom from Bepe (.079) and I have problems using NoData from MoDaCo.
It first worked great with my dutch adewidt Rom. But I'm using Bepe's rom now. I first tried the Full (with TomTom) version but it didn't work there. Now I'm using te Light version but it still doesn't work. So it has to do something with the bepe's Rom I think.
Strangeley I get a dutch error. See the picture below (The rom is WWE?? And the maker of NoData isn't dutch either??)
(click for bigger picture)
In english it says:
There has been an unexpected error in NoData.exe.
Click on Exit ("Afsluiten") and start the program again. Click on details for more information
And when I click on Details I'll get this screen:
(click for bigger picture)
What can this be? And what can I do about it? I have tried reinstalling it a few times but that doesn't make a difference..
I really liked the app when I was running the dutch rom. But I really want to use it on this Bepe's ROM

I would first re-download the NoData program again. Make a backup. Do a hard reset. Reload NoData. If that does not work. Load Eirher Mary's or Karmba's ROM and try that. Both very good. If they work, then you know the problem.

One reason for that error is if the data details/configuration has not been set up

I have set up my MMS gprs settings. Further I haven't changed a thing.. But I also only changed this settings with the dutch adewidt rom
So what should I do? What do I have to change in what?

I have the exactly same problem with my P3600i (Mary 3.7)
Tried to Hard Reset, but doesn't work
Help!

Hi UDK,
how is it possible, that you already have the upgrade which is not available at the HTC support?
I just searched for it on HTC support.

Many Thanks for posting the Rom.
what? the drivers are inside but not functional.
When this is the official HTC Rom, do I have to do HardSPL before upgrading?
rgr81

You don't need hardSPL if it's original.

Hi udk and gerald_S,
I was mainly aiming at the fact if it is official or not, do I need hardSPL or not.
Mybe someone who already installed it can give some feedback about bugs etc.
Thanks in advance.

You don't need HardSPL.
According to this thread:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=427499
the WWE (=WorldWideEnglish) Rom is nothing special. Its 3.13.405.0 so I think the difference to the german Rom is not that big.

I didn't fully try it but it definitely doesn't need HardSPL!
No bugs for me so far:
all hardware buttons working
sliding in camera album working
FM radio not as loud as 6.0 (good for me because it was too loud with lowest OS settings and 10% radio sound )
contacts, calendar, opera, .netcf 3.5, advanced config and wifi working
not really faster than 6.0 (original)

is this also working on german orbit2(Polaris) and whats the difference to their new o2 wm6.1 ROM (browser etc.) ?

That's all standard HTC supplied stuff so that won't be your problem then.
What navigation software do you have installed? Tom Tom, CoPilot etc?

Nope i don't any navigation software installed. I did not uniinstall or anything the phone just came like this.Hey , if i install a GPS navigation software will the GPS work ? Does GPS require any drivers or stuff ?

No additional driver needed. Try to activate the gps in google map, it's the easiest way to test it.

Ok let me try

HTC does not make hardware modifications to phones sold in Egypt. They use registry settings and remove certain DLL files in order to disable the GPS chip. Once you flash to a generic HTC WWE ROM, your GPS chip will work.

It's possible that there will be a problem with your product warranty when you change to a custom rom. There cab never be a problem with your operator. You can apply any operator you like to any custom rom. There is one very important step though, you have to perform a hardspl before you flash a new custom rom!!!!!

In fact I'm using the rom you where thinking of (the full version of 3lit3 VI) and I'm very pleased with it. Very stable with nice apps. There's a build in tomtom version 7.910 and it works good. Furthermore no real bugs in this rom. It's in fact true that you'd better flash a official rom first beacause the custom rom is often more stable then. You can find the links here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=431738. You must download the file to your pc and run the RUU (by double clic) from there with your Cruise connected with active sync.
Good luck.

Extract Ezinput from official ROM

Hi, does anyone know how to extract ezinput from an offcial rom?
I am using 1.48 Asia WWE ROM. There is htc ezinput which supports chinese input.
Is there a method for me to extract ezinput so that i can still use asia WWE version of eziuput on custom ROMs.
(Please don't bother other problems related to language, assuming that i can manage to tweak the custom rom to display chinese characters correctly.)
Thank you.

Yes it can. If you download one of my ROM's in the HD section you will find in the enclosed Extendir folder under Setups some cab files. IME EZinput & WesternEngine. I also have the IME CHS EZInput cab.
Just follow the link in my signature.

I actually have it extracted and make it into a cab (and posted in one of the thread under themes & application) .
But it didn't work so I have narrowed down a reg setting that's missing that could solve the issue. Just need tester

apart from building the CAB from the package, did you add in any additional registry/file to make it work? Or did you cook the ROM based on HK ROM using the package? Because I think there's additional file/registry need to be changed in order for the cab to work on a pure WWE ROM.
So far I have spotted 1 reg and 1 file, but I like to hear from you to confirm.
@cshuwing, my bad, I thought you were referring to CHS as you were asking for Asia WWE. I think CHT is only for HK WWE, not ASia WWE, or at least that's my impression thus my jumping conclusion that you are looking for a CHS ezinput.

It would be great if you could write a small tutorial on how you extracted the files for language support, created the cabs, and what tools you used. I am sure many people would greatly appreciate your efforts.

kind of missing CHS/JPN support now......

also missing Japanese laguage in my HD2 rom
I am living in Japan with my new HD2 wich I bought in the UK during my Christmas holiday in Europe.
I receive some Japanese emails and sms, but can not display the characters on my HD2, and also not reply in Japanese.
Not sure if the HD2 is available with Japanese language, but I hope for some kind of solution in the near future.
I tryed a cab file which I used on my Touch Pro. It enables me to disply Japanese on my HD2, but the on screen keyboard which comes with is not useable without stylus unfortunately.
Any ideas are welcome.

Files
In case anyone wants the files without DLing the entire ROM... I posted them up on rapidshare

*They both need to be installed*

Has anyone had any success using these without baking them into a rom? Interested in knowing if/how they were able to get up and running on a WWE phone.

I just did yesterday. Reboot was successful after installing the first cab. Phone turned into a BRICK after rebooting from 2nd cab installation !
Phone hung at the first screen, which displayed the software version info. After about 60-90 secs, an error message was shown stating that "the phone was not able to boot due to software installation of untrusted. Press Volume Up button to reset or any button to cancel the operation. This operation will delete all your personal data, and reset all settings to manufacturer default"
Actually, the above instruction is incorrect. I did not have the HD2 user manual PDF and also am using the HD2 as Internet access gateway for my laptop. Man, was I in dire straits. Called up HTC hotline for help but ended up I had to rush down to a HTC Care Centre this morn.
The HTC Care Centre guy had to re-flash the 1.66 rom back onto my HD2. I did a full restore from my Sprite backup. But now I encountered a problem where my lock screen would not come back on when pressing the Power Up/End button.

Anyone have the "IME CHS EZInput 2.1" file, in cab format or otherwise? I've downloaded a couple of LIA roms, but none of them have it in the Extendir\Setups\EzInput WWE Keyboard directory. Those file sharing services only let you download so much in one day.

This is a link to the Ezinput (actually called "Touch Input") file from the official ROM. It uses simplified Chinese. It has a minor problem, the soft keyboard is squashed when the keyboard is out. However, if the keyboard is out then you don't need the soft keyboard!
