Cooking a Tornado Rom - Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General

Hello.
I think ive been reading for the last 5 hours about this topic.
I've managed to dump the ipl spl splash gsm os .nb files using typhoonnbfdecode.pl.
Then i managed to decode os.nb using prepare_imgfs.exe -nosplit option and then make_imgfs.exe. The next thing recmod crashes.
Ignoring that crash, I've changed a folder in the dump rom and I've tried to compile it using BuildImgfs.exe and make_imgfs.exe but nothing happens actually.
Would you please give me advice on this topic? I need to replace the keyboard driver from a orange aku2 tornado rom to a i-mate rom.

its been a "long" time since i wrote this.
what have i found more? i now know to compile the files back *the nb files to one nbf file*.
so i now have a dump directory but i can't compile it.
if you have any advice on this, please help.

Hey
I'm interested in cooking a new Tornado ROM as the old AKU2.0 is, well, OLD! lol.
could you point me in the direction of a nice comprehensive guide on cooking a rom? and what software would i need?
thanx

i know like almost 80% of the process but i cant compile the .nb or .nba file after i dump it.

Hey
Do you have all the necessary files to do the rom kitchen?

[li]LOC_AKU_3.0_v1.50_[ WWE ] - AKU 3.0[/li]
------------------------------------------
basically the above but for Tornado instead
I'm assuming, because we're simply using a different AKU update, and not an actual NEW OS update, (as when people were upgrading from WM2003SE to WM5 i can understand there would be driver incompatibilities)
so, it should really be as simple as basically extracting the relevant keyboard/joystick/camera/hardware button drivers and inserting them into the SPL rom?
could you post what you have currently?
or better still, could you zip everything up and email it over to me at gmail? its duke.stix [at] googlemail [dot] com
i really wanna upgrade the AKU on the tornado! the aku 3.5 update on the pocketPC's looks a whole lot different!

ah, the thing is i dont have anything right now.
its useless all this work if you dont even know how to compile the final product.
when i will do the succesfull compiling of the dump i will do the cooking.

hello everybody
please share a simple Tornado ROM kitchen

THE FAX iS WORKING!!!!

After many test...
changing roms...
retry....
Mail to ksesoftware....
More test
I've combined the new radio ROM 1.17
(you can download here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/download.php?id=1374) and the italian ext and CE rom and now I can receive and trasmit faxes without any problem...
KSE Truefax is a good software (a little bit expensive but very good!)
Bye, M.
XDA OS Image Tool said me "unsupported file format"
Can I upgrade radio only?
Must I make a new ROM with this radio and other elements off my ROM?
Thanks.
Motard please... wich kind of tests...???
I tried some things but there aren't many changes allowed..
Ruppia
I've tried many kinds of roms: 1.60, 166, 172, WWE. ENG, I-mate... without any success... some times working.. sometime no...
I've discovered that the problem is the version of Radio ROM.
At last I've download the new radio rom 1.17, i've combined:
1.72.04 ITA CE ROM
1.17 WWE Radio ROM
1.72.128 ITA ext ROM
I've changed the language of the radio ROM with ER2003Edit (you can download here http://wiki.xda-developers.com/wiki/ER2003Edit )
and i've upgrade my Qtek2020...
Bye..., M.
P.S the downloaded file is a archeive .rar you have to extract the radio_.nbf file. You must upgrade the CE Rom and the Radio rom toghether. you can avoid to upgrade the ext Rom (to save your time)
Need you a specific fax line?

Modify ExtRom for Hermes (WM5)

I've asked this question quite often in this forum, but until now nobody can help me. I'll try it again and hope for good news here.
Like in bepe's kitchen for WM6 Hermes ROM, I need it for WM5. I have to modify the ExtROM only, some programs in it should be deleted (branding) and some cab-files must be included. In WM6 kitchen this can realized with the folder OEMOPERATORS. This folder comprised all of these files and can modified as you like, with cooking a new nbh-file as following (very easy).
Is it possible to do this also with a WM5 ROM? Which tool can be used for this (looking for "WM5 ROM kitchen for HERMES")? What is the different in file structure between WM5 and WM6?
I know, WM5 is "old" and not the favoured OS in this forum, but technical reasons squeeze me to testing this.
I'm looking forward to your statements and hope for support.
Thanks in advance!

Just a mirror for the ROM with 32Mb Pagepool

TWO THUMBS UP FOR THIS ROM!
WM6.1 5.2.19199 (Build 19199.1.0.0)
ROM Date: 02/15/08
ROM Version: 6.10.02.PV
RADIO: 1.15.00
Protocol Version: 1337.45
ExtROM Version: Hoangdat_VT
PagePool:32mb
To whoever can speak vietnamese...
can you ask Hoangdat_VT from pdaviet, why does he keep using .net cf 2, where 3.5 is out already (and apparently faster than vers 2)...
From what I understand, if version 2 is built up within the rom, there is no point installing 3.5 cab, cause it would do nothing... is this correct? can someone confirm this?
This rom is fast!!
i have trouble with sound, only when i play smthng from storage card. i tried versions with 16 and 32 mb pp - nothing changes.
Just flashed the 32MN page pool ROM...doesnt seem as fast as the previous released 19199 ROM in the other thread.
Microsoft Office 2007 and recommended apps
the programs from the office wm6 cab cannot read/edit 2007 (.xlsx, etc.) files, it only views older files... am i using the wrong cab?
edit: it's the wrong cab. here's one that's ok... http://www.4shared.com/file/37900185/84acfe60/jimm98y_office2007.html
and here are the apps (cab and exe files) i use for the ROM (Microsoft Office 2007 is included): http://www.4shared.com/file/38068886/89c7683b/recommended_cabs_and_exe.html

Like I wrote in the above.
Though strange. I was able to upgrade to the PDAVIET 19716.1.1.0 PV just now.
new glassrom
Hi Joseph
I was a few moments ago in the pdavietforum, the reason the new rom has
net cfv2 instead of net cf3.5, is cause of , there is no space in the rom more for 3.5, v2 is also more stable

WM6.1 Pro TESTs + 20931 kitchen - Updated 21.11.2008

Here are my other beta works, still have no time to finish them all
20931 kitchen - this is my attempt to port the 20931 chinese build to WWE since i crapped over the nk.exe I used helmis one for the port - this is the reason that the rom uses more ram than sun_dream's one, also touch scrolling is not working, IE6 is included but in order to make it work you need to install this cab, Flash Lite 3.1 is included, removed office, SQM, Transcriber, Windows Live, Welcome Center, IPSECVPN, and some more stuff which IMO is unneeded ... the rom so far is stable but IE6 and Flash lite work far worst than in let say 20753 for example .... try it on your own risk - it is unfinished port so you can encounter unpredicted bugs with it. You can change the kitchen the way you want but please include my nickname in the credits when you publish a roms made with it
Mirror - thanks to Kraven
enjoy
19915 rom - UC capable (included cabs) - password blueangel
20226 rom - my latest WM7 looks inside (includes Word and Excell in rom) - uses the old method for extrom (included cabs) - no password protection
Megaupload Mirror 20226 - thanks to kraven
20273 rom - the same as above (no cabs included for the extrom but you can use the ones from my previous rom) - no password for the archhive - in this rom i have slightly modified a lot of oem resources with a lightweight version in order to make this rom usable even without extrom
Megaupload Mirror 20273 - thanks to kraven
EXTROM only
Megaupload EXTROM Mirror - thanks to kraven
for my latest roms i have removed SQM, and customer experience sh** in order to lighten a lil the rom and protect personal information to be sent to microsoft
I keep it clean as i can

Bugs
WMV playing slowdown - disable ATI bitmap caching will solve this (you can do it in TCPMP options - this is the easyest way i will make a cab for it later)
Hi, what is the meaning of the pagepool? I see lot of values but I don't understand how useful it is.
Is the WLanFix from the previous version added to this one or I have to use that fix?
Thanks a lot for your work, I'm flashing now
all the fixes are included into the rom so none of them are needed after flashing this one
Downloading ........ >> 14/4 Installed & working great
Thanks xplode .... like ur wm6 so much >> 14/4 Like it .... my first WM6.1
Well, the best Wm6.1 rom I've tried. Wifi works fine even with my WPA-PSK TKIP conection. Bluetooth and irda works fine (with version 209 from pdaviet I had some problems with BT)
Installed part of your previous extrom and all ok.
It's fast very fast. Great work man, great work.
Maybe someone knows how can I build a spanish rom? I've seen german and italian roms, so I'd like to have a spanish rom.
Once again, GREAT WORK man
wich .NET Version is this ?
is it necessary to enable the speedup patch ?
other download sites
the rapidshare guys are really irritating and keep u waiting for long....could u use some other site
thanks
thanks again for the super work, xplode!
would it be possible for you to extract the file explorer from the pdvh rom and place it here? i believe it's more advanced.
All WM6.1 roms by default have .NET CF 2.0 SP2, and i will stick to it for now, stock settings are better
the file explorer is called GSFinder you can find it in the thread of my WM6 rom 1933
thanks, i got it.
@ xplode
Sir, please upload the rom on another mirror
There are no words to describe this incredible work. The ROM works fine.I hope that there are no problems with the phone.
I'm flashing now.
i am uploading it now to megaupload
it´s a great rom, too.
but there is still a media player bug.
playing videos is terrible.
seems to be a buffering problem.
hope this will be fixed in the next rom.
playing mp 3 work perfect now !
can you upload sample video to test this bug ?
sorry, i think i can´t.
because it´s a dvd i convert to .wmv, so i can´t share it, because there is a copy right on it and i don´t want to do something illegal.
the first 5 minutes are very buggy, then everything work perfectly.
have already test it on a wm 2003 ppc, there everything work perfect.
well can you encode other video just for test with the same settings
just search for .wmv file using google and find this page.
http://www.werbeclips.net/
there you can download small .wmv videos.
i test to play one of the videos, and there is the bug !
the first 10 seconds the picture doesn´t change, so you just hear the sound.
after 10 seconds everything work correct.
tryed it , disabling bitmap cache for ati imageon solves the problem

Hi,
I have 2 questions :
Is this ROM "ROM WM6.1 CE OS 5.2.19965 (Build 19965.1.2.3 PV DVH) - V12" newer than "ROM WM6.1 CE OS 5.2.20226 (Build 20226.1.3.0 PV DVH)" ? I looked at the screenshot from pdaviet website and I think so but the build number confuse me.
Have I only to put the Cabs directory at the root of the Storage card or have I other things to do to make extrom cabs installed with the hard reset ?
