Hey guys I have some spare time this summer and since I have been messing around with Wizard and Tornado/Typhoon ROM's so much this week I figured I might as well edit the WM6 ROM and add things like the newest Commmanager, Taskmanager, Camera, MMS, File Manager software and try and release a relatively clean ROM.
1) Is there any point me doing this? Will there be enough popularity.
2) Which Apps would you like to see added/removed and what tweaks and fixes do you need added?
Let me be first to appreciate your thoughts
I beleive Task Manager and Sim card Manager are essential
Regards,
Thanks
Taskmanager 1.22 (build 23604) is ready and working, I shall extract the SIM Manager now, I had forgotten about that!
Thanks for your effort - good to see that somebody has spare time . As I wrote here somewere, I still have not found the modem in this rom so I would appreciate adding it into your new version. Helpfull would be also to add application unlock and may be to create some simple "exe" tool for enabling and disabling charging during USB connection to PC (each time I have to go into registry to change certain values, but I think I can recognize positive effect to the battery). And please dont forget to replace the horrible sound "default.wav" for a pleasant one . Important is also to find a solution for additional T9 languages. For additional information about bugs and issues please check this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=319120
Thank you once again
I appreciate you comments and I will see what I can do about the modem. The sounds will definitely be replaced with nicer ones
I am not a programmer but a few friends of mine are so I will see what they can whip up for me if they have the time in terms of the USB Charge program.
custom
java support and a task manager would be nice

we need more memory and more ram if you could take out windows live,
office,marketplace and debug apps that would save us a lot of memory and ram and if you could make theses apps into cab files as addons that would be great thanks
memory is 15.95mb
memory used 3.03
-----------------
program memory 22.32mb
use program memory 16.18mb %72
there needs to be a STK (simtoolkit)

What can I do to help?
I'm a programmer from down-under... the real down-under....
I've never worked in CE before - but it cant be that much different.....
And I'd love a version for Xphone model phones!
Anything I could do?
Skill set: Anything .NET
Also - as a favour, anyone have acccess to the "vodafone live" patch for New Zealand?
Hi,
I'd be interested as well!
The main point for me is to remove as much as possible things that are not necessary, or that can be added later in the Storage Card.
Thanks to mind this!
...gentlemen, could you tell me what tool do you use for ROM cooking?
...gentlemen, could you tell me what tool do you use for ROM cooking...?

Yep the title is right-
I've searched the forums countless times and read the wiki. Although i am more than technically experienced to perform the "upgrades" I cant quite nail down the step by step procedures for my device and the upgrades i desire.
Feel free to rip me a new one- but please direct me down the right path.
Oh i'm not in any kind of hurry.
I have a Cingy/ATT 8525
and I want to run Black and I want all the worthy tweaks that
allow one to have an extended array of functionality.
Thanks in advance and sorry for creating clutter.
Hi
I dont understand what you are asking - are you asking how to flash the black 2.5 rom? The instuctions to do so are in the black 2.5 thread, and also on the RUU installer package that you can download.
All tweaks are also included in the black 2.5 thread.
Its quite a simple flash process.
1) Backup all your personal data as your the device will be formatted (not including the microSD card)
2) Connect your phone via activesync on a winxp pc
3) Run the installer
4) In approx 5 mins, its all done
hi nmonger
thanks for the advice.
What i am trying to accomplish is get a fully tweaked 8525- or as damn
close as humanly possible.

I think that first you have to figure out what do you want with your phone...there are a lot of Tweaks and changes and improves you can do to your 8125, but not all of them could be usefull for you or ...
My personal sugestion is that read again the forum and decide wich things want to change and the go for them... everyone here can help you and there are already a lot of threads whit step-to-step info about upgrading and Tweaking your device.
I could also sugest that you follow the upgrading guide here on the forum and first upgrade the bootloader, then the OS and the Radio... and after that you will have a better phone and the time to look for more changes to apply...

really depends on what you want to use the device for. upgrading is easy [if you read and follow the guides], and the available roms on this site are pretty damn stable (for me at least). Depending on which rom you install, you will need different tweaks, add-ons. For example, for your 8525, at a minimum, you will want the cingular settings (which some roms bake in) and the keyboard fix. Everyone has their favorite installs. For me, a corporate user of the 8525 on Cingular, I have installed the following (keep in mind this is a subjective list) ... I don't watch video or listen to music much with this device, so I have not tweaked it out for these things:
Must haves (for me)
Goodlink
Bandswitch 1.2.3
BatteryStatus today plugin
Cingular Settings (by wpbear)
ComButtong-Toggle-Vibrate-Fix
8525 Keyboard Patch
Cyberon Voice Dialer (I use it, and I know it is lame)
Pocket IE Card Cache (to cache on my SD Card)
Acrobat Reader LE
Speed patch (buzzing for Black 2.5 when I run that ROM)
MPM patch (for Custel 1.3 when I run that ROM)

Interesting list you have there weinson.
So i have already stated on my journey here is what i have so far, its not a long list but i suppose its a good starting point.
WM6 Pro Black 2.5
Radio Version 1.40.30.00
What i need my 8525 to be is as highly efficient as possible i need the apps to open quickly and be easily found, i do a little traveling so i need my music and maybe a video or two. Web browsing to be effortless because i need to get on the internet for my job (i am a real estate agent) and i need the best WiFi connectivity available in addition to the 3g connection because sometimes im in Wifi enable buildings and cant get a "cell signal", thats also why i am looking at VOIP options and lastly i am searching for a non-windows push service, i'm really going to miss my BB until i can get a reliable solution.
I want to thank everyone for there help so far and the members for this forum ive been lurking for a while and am very impressed with its diligently helpful atmosphere.
Keep sending those suggestions- I will continue my search.
A new noob is here.

Hi All...!
In this times i has received many support from user niki forum.
Thanks so much guys.
Now i'm cooking ours Rom niki device,and what u want in Niki project Rom please post here.I will look in it and select which the best for us.
Any ideas just post in this thread
U're welcome guys
first to post here...well I guess the best way to start is to thank you for your work!
second..I think that all niki's users would love to find a way to improve battery life...right now it really drains out quickly..and perhaps there is something that can be done to reduce the consumption of energy.
plus i would love to see wifi connectivity on my screen..
ciao from Italy
I guess there will be many nice things to include (which dont come to my mind right now.. )
The only thing i'd say at the moment is that it would be awesome to include PointUI (www.pointUI.com) in some way... I know it's in very early stage and still has some bugs but it simply looks astonishing!
just my 2 cents...
i would like long press end key to power an .exe. such as slide2unlock..
1st I want to appreciate for you taking the time to try to make a good device even better.
Here it goes:
A finger friendly, always accessible task manager/task switcher (like the one of AE Button Plus, also the button-customization possibilities are nearly endless, which enable ducamie to do what he wants)
hangup-on-slider-close tool which is available in the forum. maybe it needs some modding since I prefer not to lock the phone or anything else but just to hang-up if I accepted the call via slider-open.
LCMinutes (also available here)
the HTC Apps with all proper working customization tools
since we own the niki, we all love eye candy stuff. So if something looks awesome and don't impact on performance too much, consider it.
some kind of working card export thing
system tweaks that make the niki a bit faster. consider to spent more ram to get more speed (some cache values and such things)
how about google maps
not to mention that working gps would be really great
get rid of those MS Live Apps
Well... this list is quite long I guess. Consider this a cheeky wishlist .
Cheers,
jekk
Black Berry Connect 4.0.0.92 Included!!
This Version Work in the RIM Network!
Personally I would like:
- to be able to customise the long end key press, to add other programs, mortscripts, etc to it.
- to be able to customise the Keypad quick tasks (I have changed New Note to launch Opera Mini so it is possible)
- A decent close all running programs function, ideally to be able to invoke the HTC xbutton task manager 'drop down' using a button.
Really appreciate your efforts Tom.
Request:

the funny thing about this is that if it didnt exist at all like in the excalibur there would be ALOT of users screaming to have this functionality . After getting used to the T9 function I really dont mind it.
having said that a 4 sided cube that dont resemble the iphone would be great. and then the obvious is a big storage rom without the ext-rom.
Why do you guys want that third party soft like point ui or similar will be installed?
If a new version is released u have to install the new pointui in userspace.
Then u have lost double space.
I would prefer to remove all apps that can be installed by yourself.
Even Live Mobile or HTC Apps.
Then everybody can install what he needs and save space.
Also u can remove soft if there is something newer if it's not in the ROM.
If it's in ROM it's lost space and u have to flash a new ROM erverytime a app
is released in a new version if u need more space.
And that means to install everthing u need again and again.
Pls do a stable and good Rom with only the needed things,
for additional apps in newest version we have threads like the HTC Apps Thread.
Is it possible to have it contain more than 1 language keyboards/text input? I know have an English version, and it would be usefull for me to be able to use xt9 in Dutch.

And I would like that you put in a softkey reg that fills up my bankaccount each time I press it.

j/k
sorry 4 spam Tom, just had to
I came up this morning with one more things that i would love to have in my phone:
the possibility to use two dictionaries at the same time (primary and secondary). i.e. :If you write a word in T9 that it is not recognize by the first dictionary T9 tries to see possible matches with the second one..
ciao
thanks for cooking the Niki Project ROM!
these are the things that I want to be included in the ROM (if possible)
- WIFI & GPS Workaround
- Disable XT9
- Be able to map keypad buttons (IE button as "OK/Close" (16 keys))
- FM receiver
- Removable Storage workaround (WM5 Storage/Card Export)
good luck on the project!

Gloomy's Manila2D Blueangel WM6.1 CE ROM (Build 20721 xip)

Change log from swampy´s M2D V3 is as follows:
In ROM file:
New features:
XIPed
UC enabled
Plus pack
Large Start Menu
Large Title bar
Larger Submenus

chinese chess (coolchix)
invaders
pacman2
pocketsudoku
added tools:
SSMaPa2d (to patch Manila2D, very interesting tool)
Haret-0.5.2 (to boot Linux, this is just the loader, you still need to have linux on the SD card)
removed: Pimbackup (SpbBackup is more comprehensive and reliable)
In ExtROM:
-Replaced default Manila2d skin with knobi´s skin http://forum.xda-developers.com/show...&postcount=693
Code:

Gloomy V3.1b ROM for BA
ExtROM v.3.1b in .rar format
More info:
Backup all your data (other than SD Card) before flashing.
make sure on your SD card there is a folder called Exactly ExtROM containing the .cab and other files in the .rar
- Voip working, Just run Sip Config tool and in the proxy server enter for example sip.vyke.com (and you
can open a free account with them and get 1$ just go to www.vyke.com)
DO NOT install their client for Windows Mobile, it makes the blueangel very unstable.
I found a couple of bugs on the 3.1 image, main one that was not UC capable. That is corrected now with 3.1b
Also new ExtROM 3.1b unpack in root of SDcard and read the readme.txt
Screenshots:
Congrats on your new ROM. Please post some screen shots.
Off Topic: Either I've missed it or none has made one.. Anyone considering cooking a BA ROM with Voice Dialing?
Edit: WoW, very elegant BG. Thanks for the screen shots. Congrats again! I will place it on my list to test as soon as possible.
My pleasure.
I have experience cooking roms for linux devices but this is the first WinCE device I tackle.
Feedback is more than welcome!

Somewhere along WM5, a few cooks started putting Cyberon's Voice Commander in their roms, but because a lot of people preferred M$ Voice Command, they stopped (a quick reminder that VC cannot be cooked into a rom because it is licensed software)
@gloomyboy
What about the specs of the rom? (pagepool, Ramdisk - yes or no- , etc). Screenshots look good though... good job!
No RAM disk, about the pagepool I haven´t changed it from whatever Swampy had so he can better answer that question...

The ROM has a very beautiful interface. I have tried it and my first outstanding concern is with Windows Media Player. Unlike other ROM versions that I have used which give the user the option of pausing a media file when another application is in used, the WMP in this ROM simply stops and does not resume playback. So Gloomy, your ROM will be really great if you can address this Problem.

hello there
have just flashed this rom. good performance but i am having a problem.
i wonder if it's just me or is wifi not working well? i can get a connection- though it does tend to get disconnected quite often NOT because of poor signal.
Also, even when it's connected, apps cannot seem to recognise the connection and therefore cannot get online.
this has happened to one wifi connection at home 100% of the times i try to connect and also happens about 50% of times that I try on another wifi connection of a different router.
any suggestions?
p.s. ive never had any problems with other roms- ive tried most of them...
thanks

I had a similar issue with an older version of Swampy's rom. I am not certain of the reason why, but 20758 doesn't seem to have that issue anymore. One thing I did find out was that Weather Pannel was causing my connection to drop for no apparent reason. If you are using it, try to take it out of the Today Plugin and see if it still drops the connection.

thanks i think ill try that. i think ill try taking it off with m2d configurator.
I've been using and flashing swampy's basic roms of the past 3 months and they didnt seem to have this problem.....
anyway, ill post back
egzthunder1
i think my problem is kinda different as my connection is really being dropped that often. but rather, while im connected, nothing can recognise the conenction.
getting online via activesync and gprs is fine, just not wifi- very strange.
ive tried taking away the weather panel with m2dconfig; deleting the country; disabling auto update and so on but they didn't help unfortunately.
so...any more ideas?
btw i installed wifi profiles, tried to use it but uninstalled it in the end because it didnt help and it's not something i need. surely....thats irrelevant to my issue...
wifi and windows media player
About wifi, make sure in wifi settings, powermode you tick off 'turn off wifi when not in use for 2 minutes'
Instead turn it on and off manually when needed.
I use AKwifitoogle very happily, will probably add it to next rom.
About windows media player...
Have you tried loading a different windows media player cab file (instead of the one provied with the ExtROM)
If that works better please report the link and I will be happy to try it and if better include in the next release
Thanks to all who have tried the rom and especially for your feedback!

About wifi, make sure in wifi settings, powermode you tick off 'turn off wifi when not in use for 2 minutes'
Instead turn it on and off manually when needed.
I use AKwifitoogle very happily, will probably add it to next rom.
About windows media player...
Have you tried loading a different windows media player cab file (instead of the one provied with the ExtROM)
If that works better please report the link and I will be happy to try it and if better include in the next release
Thanks to all who have tried the rom and especially for your feedback!

Somewhere along WM5, a few cooks started putting Cyberon's Voice Commander in their roms, but because a lot of people preferred M$ Voice Command, they stopped (a quick reminder that VC cannot be cooked into a rom because it is licensed software)

Hey my friend! Sorry I haven't been very active these days. Been going crazy playing with HTC Home Icons and Flash Home screens. Amazing stuff out there!!. Actually, I'm trying to find Colored Icon Bar, similar to those that are being posted all over for Touch Diamond. Haven't found one that works on BA Yet. Perhaps, maybe our icons are individual images? Didn't think about that.
Thanks for the info about M$VC.
At present, I'm using Swampy's ROM. It's the only one not driving me crazy with the BT and WiFi Issues. Will be testing GloomyBoy's ROM soon.
Any help with the Colored Icon Bar ?

Thanks mate. I'll work on it later this afternoon. I just got a new 2400ah battery and I need to modify the Charging cradle so the phone can sit on it with the new thicker battery. Hope I can get 5 hrs use I've read otherwise, but I'll keep the hopes alive. EgzThunder is also a very resourceful man. I'm sure he has on his back pocket a working battery bar (Oh Don't think I'm being lazy)

I have standard batt and with BT on all day linked to car audio + 1.5 hrs or so phone calls I get 2 days, and on stanby not used around 10 days a big batt like that would last me a week in use, It looks like you may have a charging prob, check your connections are clean hope this helps

some more details how to flash your phone.
Not that i am going to write you the whole procedure but...
1. Choose the rom with the proper language. WWE for English, FRA for French, etc.
2. There are several very good cooked roms in this forum. All will be WM6.1 with different 'borrowed' features from more advanced phones than ours, who is pretty 'old' in phone years..
3. download the rom package. It is normally ZIP or RAR. Extract them to your PC, have the phone connected (Active Sync must recognize your phone), and run the application to flash the rom. check the right boxes and it supposes to flash your rom. make sure your battery is at 50% at least, and do not stop this process until it finishes.
4. Some phones may get errors trying to flash. In that case you should make your phone start in IPL mode (push power, camera and stylus push the reset button for more than 1 second) until you get the right screen. I assume your phone is unlocked. If it is, and have hard SPL ready, see next item. If not, start doing some massive reading on the forum what needs to be done.
5. better read this link before you start: http://www.trinityguides.info/index.php . It's the best source for answering most of the questions you may have.
6. Don't ask people what rom is the best. You will get more answers than roms... You have to try and flash few until you get the one you like.
7. The best home plug-in currently is Manila 2D . Most cookers will have it with and without it. Try one with it, as it is better to get it cooked than added later. However, it is a matter of taste and memory management, so you may want to have one without.
8. Lastly- there are lite, medium and full blown roms. Again- it depends what your needs are.
So, it's a trial and error, my friend. Get ready for some sleepless nights.
Good luck

Basically, "skin" and "theme" mean the same thing. They both refer to changing the screen display on a device.
One popular "theme" in the Trinity forum is making the screen display look like that of the HTC Diamond device. That is why the themes have the word "diamond" in their name.
Hope this helps,
Mattster.

The Choice is yours.
Flash a Manila ROM and install m2dc customiser (some roms come with it already installed), you will have easy access to many, many themes that will change the appearance of your home screen and launch screens (messages, contacts, settings, etc.) It does use more memory and slow your phone down slightly, but for some that is not a problem.
Flash a non Manila ROM: you are more limited, but you can simply change the background artwork of your screen ("wallpaper") using .tsk files. There are also tweaking programs that allow you to change font sizes & colours. There is also pay for software out there (like spb mobile shell) which allows you to install themes, and xda does have threads for them.
If your main enjoyment is playing around with themes (as opposed to relying on the phone for memory intensive applications), I recommend you read as much as possible on the manila2d skin threads, then flash a Manila rom and use m2dc customiser. Searches on xda will explain all.
Hope this helps,
Mattster.
Aha thanks
XDA-Team_Manilla2D WORCKS SO FAR IT IS OK THANKS!
Sorry guys im a noob to winmo, just wondering how i get into the registry to tweak things and make my HD2 run faster and more efficent, my youtube is very slow, would like to get the N wireless setting and make the screen flow smoother. i have seen multiple things about changing stuff in the registry and what not, would really appreciate any help i get, i dont want to have to sell this thing to get an iphone again, i already have the Wifi router and pandora but just need to learn how to tweak this baby up. thank you
And can someone help with giving me a good location to get a free registry editor, and some tips. thankyou
can someone please direct me to a registry editor i can download and the cab file directory and the settings page that list all of the different registrys you can change to improve performance. Anyone out there that can help me would be nice, i have searched and cant find definate links. Thank you
Try this it might help to find what you are looking for.
You might also want to think about getting off the stock ROM would solve a lot of problems.
what file would you suggest for a rom reflash, in order to flash a new rom does it have to have that HSPL that i see peple mention. I just got a registry program and have been doing some tweaks and also got BsB tweaks.
As far as ROMs it's personal preference. Yes you would need Hard HSPL before flashing a new ROM. I currently run NRG's Energy rom and I find it works well. But I might be moving to a new one this week since I got my new HD2.
