Anyone here willing to help.... - Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General

I need some advice on porting, and so far the only progress I've made is with a Titan ROM, and that was only upto getting the xip out of the Wizard 318 ROM and the Titan ROM...
Any further steps are appreciated.
Thanks,
Merlin
EDIT: followed the copy of MSXIPKernel from Titan to the reference 318. Now what?
P.S> What's the likelihood of me bricking (permanently) my Wizard?

Sorry
<bump>But I need to do this </bump>

OK.....
Got a successfull XIP_OUT.bin (merger of the Titan (6800) and 318 OS) and merged ti w/the OS.nb of Wizard.
Crashed on flash.
OK, so what do I need to do now?

download the two zips from above
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=1312211&postcount=9
follow the above instructions, one of the zips is a manual too

the above rom is great, if you want minimal apps and max speed try vanilla 2.01 or vanilla touch. tom codon cooks some great roms too. roms can be found here

you just gotta do searches, advanced searches and failing that, a lot of reading.

[Stopped] Windows Mobile 6.5 build 21215 for HTC Blue Angel

Sorry guys im not going to finish this rom, the main reasons are i got no time to do so, uni and work take almost all my time and the other one is i lost interest in my blue angel, soon il be buying a touch pro so ive decided not to finish my rom, i apologize if anyone got exited about it but its just that i have lost all interest in making the rom , again sorry for not meting your expectations, and lasty i want to give a BIG thanks to swampy for guiding me into the right direction and providing me the tools for doing so, swampy you got my respect and thanks.

Ok guys ive ported or at least i think i did , the newest 6.5 build to our beloved blue angels..but theres a problem the rom is not booting its stays in the bootloader screen, my guess is that something is wrong in the imageinfo.bin or maybe the rom is to big hence the OS wont boot up(although the output .nbf image is exactly 32mb in size), i need help from senior rom cookers xplode,sun_dream,swampy so please guys if you see this post hit me up with a pm so you can help me figured out whats wrong in my rom.
note: Ive removed lots of things from the original rom like welcome center,IE8,widgets,office and a bunch of other crap that makes the rom heavy, don't worry il release them as cabs
And also i wanna thank bepe for his rom tools, xplode/sun_dream for inspiring me on taking this rom cooking journey ;D
Anyways stay tune guys.
Way to go Rafyvitto!!!!
Is it a true release or just a hex edited (aka fake) release? Reason I am asking is because I have seen a load of new builds in the Raphael forums (all of them within one weeks time)
In either case, I am looking forward to it!

Hi mate Have a look inside your XIP.bin and you'll find a little bit of space were you can put some OEM_Driver files "there's not much but can save you some space in rom image, or use explode or sundream XIP.bin as "base xip" but dump "it" and look inside and then remove the extra files you find from your OEM folder and make use of the ones in XIP.bin

We all want to see you growing up as a ROM developer, our best wishes.
Maybe...
Maybe you need to port the xip with other tool, there must be the mistake... ask personally to xplode i think he uses a different way to port, i mean manually. i have saw a thread with this kind of xplanation but i cant remember where...
Good luck man! nice to see you trying to cook.
Im trying to cook 6.1 on Elfin i did two roms now nothing to be surprised of course i need to know so much more!

Gene100 upgrades

Hi there... I am so new in here and I am interested in knowing many things regarding upgrading P3400i... I hope you guys especially the expert can help me out here...
>>. I have with me HTC P3400i (Gene100) with all this...
ONBL .............. 1.17.0000
SPL .............. 1.17.0000
GSM/Radio ....... 02.79.90
OS ver ............ 1.17.00
S/N ................ HT8xxxxxxxx T04
ROM ver .......... 1.17.720.1 WWE
Ext ROM ver ..... 1.17.720.101

SD RAM .......... 64 mb
Flash ROM ...... 128 mb

Storage Size ... 40.44 mb

Q1. Should I upgrade the the SPL even if the version is already 1.17.0000 ???
Is there is any higher version of SPL? (because I've read through all the thread and I couldn't find any higher version of it...)
Q2. I still couldn't understand what do you guys meant by "Flashing" ROM and what is it for? Does it meant for us to have extra spaces? and by the way does the term "flash" means that we force the system to show the newly created ROM?
Q3. What is OLIPRO/OREFKOV Method for? Is it for upgrading the SPL/ checking the SPL or we use it to flash the ROM?
I read it here and (hxxp://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=472169) many times (at least 10 times) but still confused!
Q4. OK now... this is the biggest question of all....
I want to upgrade the OS from WM 6.0 Professional to WM 6.5 or higher and speed up the processor by overclocking it... what do I do first???
PLEASE ADVISE & HELP!!!!

Actually I wish to upgrade the OS to WM6.5.... do you think upgrade P3400i with WM6.5 is ok? will it give the system a good performance? or just stick with WM6.1 (the "Current Version : 5.0 build 21056 with Optimized OEM, EXTs and Recmodding Structure" >>>> hxxp://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=467796)

buddy a lot of roms available and it's ur choice what u need.
Actually I was asking about the performance between WM6.1 & WM6.5 if we run it on Gene100 (P3400i)... which one gives better performance.... and of course I've found a lot of good & interesting ROM in here.... a lot of it looks very impressive but still I have to install it for the sake of knowing of how is it going to be....
Thanks again....

What a surprise!!!
I just checked my Gene using SPLCHK (by Vaibhav Batra) and the result says that I am having an OLD GENE!!!
I really thought that I am having a New Gene.... and more.... with all the description that I revealed in the earlier post... you also think that I have a New Gene....
Is this is possible?

ya it can be possible.i have told you earlier that "it seems that u have new gene" i haven't said u have new gene.
well to insure what u have just follow this tool and then give "built date".
after that we can surely say that it is old or new gene.
Where is this file "spl.bin" located ?? couldn't find it.... and how do I open this "bk_06_0001.img" file?

open bk_06_0001.img with note pad and search for "Built on" date.
If your date is < march 26 2008 then you have an old gene. If your date is >= march 26 2008 then you have a new gene.
and spl.bin was given with the tool. check zip file.
Sigh.... it was built on March 7 2008....
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Deep...
thanks man.... thanks a lot....
I really really feels like being fooled by HTC.... why name it Gene100 and shows all higher specs but it's an old Gene...
by the way.... Deep.... how do I know whether my phone has been updated with a new SPL??? How do I check??
Ok Deep.... I think I got it already.... just reboot and then check the boot screen... am I right???
Right now I am trying to follow the "step by step guide.... " shown in here [hxxp://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=472169]
Wish me luck!!!

Help Me Creating ROM for Magician....

Hey guys i have bought my new Touch Pro 2 mobile.. and so i am going to use my I-mate jam for making new ROM's for jam.. Request to all Magician ppl to help me to build rom what you want... you can tell me
1. Do you want a clean rom..
2. Rom with TouchFLO 2d..
3. Anyother..
will be waiting for your replys..
cant make the decision alone.. so thought of making a post..
Q: Do you know how to build magician ROMs?
If yes, please tell me how. (I was making few roms for friends kovsky, so i know what and how, but i have not found any way how to build for my magician)
A clean to the bone 6.5.3 ROM would be nice...
Or even Android!
P.S. I`m in for testing!
Android + 1, or 6.5.x with manila 2
I think andriod is to slow for the magician, and it would be to hard to make it for one person.
Windows mobile 6.5.5 is really nice. But I heard it is hard to unpack the magician roms. There is not any kitchen released. Only cotulla has succeeded making an magician rom so far..
Yes, but he is selfish and doesn't want to share his work with us. Lazy too. I respect his work but nothing new is posted since 2009... Like he is left this magician project...
Android sounds interesting.
I'd even like to help in any way possible, posted a message in the general > questions just today.
I'm doing a study informatica > software engineer, and for a schoolproject we have to write an android application ... don't have €500,- for some fancy HTC phone with android on it, so if we could kick my phone back to life (even if it is slow) it would be awesome.
Saying that, also like to add that i have enough sparetime to help you out with some testing, reading, writing/coding I'm not really experience with mobile phone OS ROMS so it is a good challenge and probly a nice sparetime project
I would that its a rom like htc touch 2,
The start button at the bottom
I fear also that Cotulla no longer is working on the Magician ROMs.
I hope I'm wrong...
A new ROM should be fingerfriendly and stable with all Radio-Software-Versions.
I love my Magician ! A solid Case , you became all Repair Parts for low Price and you can change them self . I would be happy , if someone could make a kitchen, with a chance to change the language . Good luck !
Mod. edit: as of now not dev related, moved to general
?
hey
i want to ask when the rom is finished ?
Please let me know
?
Does anywhone now when the rom is finished ?
Please let me know
A WM6.5.X, Android or WP7 is great.
info needed...
hello
does someone have any info on how to build rom
i managed to decrypt, extract, modify (oem and xip) and now i need some help to build rom back so that i can encrypt it and use RUU to flash...
any info is welcome

are you kidding me? what do YOU CAN MODIFY?
Tell me that you are not modifying Cotulla's roms, that is not cool dude.
Respect his work and wishes, either create your own rom or get permission from the big man himself before doing it.
DO NOT WORRY i DO NOT use Cotulla's rom!!!! i do respect his great work... at the moment im working on WM2003SE but i guess that same or similar procedure is used on WM6.1/WM6.5.... so i juct need to figure out way to build new rom form files that i have extracted...
any info is appreciated....
i havent found any kitchen for Magician, and kitchen for Himalaya or BlueAngel does not work on Magician... so sad...
ok that is great news, now I am sure there are guides for rom compiling available around here. I will have a look soon and report back
I cooked my own ROM based on Cotulla O5. but Cotulla doesn't allow it for the publication.
if you want you can publish your rom on www.techz.in

Help Flashing Verizon XV6800

Hey all, n00b here. I am currently on the official Verizon WM 6.1 Release, but would like to use one of the newest WM 6.5 custom ROMs that have been put together here.
Forgive my complete ignorance, the Wiki seems to be down at the moment and I just need some guidance.
What displays on the screen when doing a soft reset is the following:
M 09
B 03
P DCAAXOM-4350H
R 3.37.75
D 3.57
I understand that the basic steps are:
1) Unlock Phone
2) Update Radio
3) Flash ROM
First question: Does my radio need to be updated, based on the info above?
Second: Do Olipro 2.40 and nueSPL effectively do the same thing (i.e. unlock the phone)
Third: What utility does one use to load up the pre-packaged ROMs?
Fourth: Can I capture my existing OS setup as a backup somehow?
Thanks in advance.
