Announcing XDA-developers Special Edition ROM v1.1

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...

We're glad you appreciate it. That's what we work for...

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,
..lance

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).

O2 Plus V2.3 available?

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.

Win Mo 6.1

Not sure if this is worth sharing, but I thought I would pass it along in case someone could do something useful with it.

owlrayyt!! that's good news.. better Start Porting and Cooking!! hope Wizard roms soon have this kernel.. actually, i'm still stuck on the first encarnation of the Touch-Ported rom (my ROM is about 5 months old now).. and i'm eagerly waiting for the WM6.1 roms before i flash again..
so please.. someone port..
thanks..

i would love to see a port to the touch vouge

has anyone reposted to rapidshare? These links are terribly slow
Edit: (at least where I'm trying to access them anyway )

So this is a completely compiled rom for HTC Hermes?
Moths ago I heard that it should be possible to exchange some files in WM to switch to another language, just like it can be done on vista with language packs. Is that true? Would be awsome to check out WM6.1 right now

Windows Marketplace

Here is the cab that is downloaded when you first connect to the marketplace. Hopefully all the chefs can integrate it in.
edit// For those that have a ROM that did NOT come with the marketplace (stock roms for the most part) you will need to create a shortcut to \windows\WMMarketplaceFullClient.exe.

This is work on my WM 6.5 in ELFIN. But this is missing the path icon. I need to find out the exe file on window folder to run.

It does not work on my Energy ROM WM 6.5 (23016) NRGZ28..
It says:
We encountered an error trying to reach the windows marketplace server.
Would you try again?
Anyone got the same issue?

Yes having the same issue on athine´s build 23047 and on my Toshiba TG01 with stock rom!

I have read somewhere that maybe the problem is localization of the software:
I live in Italy and an italian winmo blog says:
To make it work on italian ROM's you have to change "WMMBootstrap.exe.0409.mui" into "WMMBootstrap.exe.0410.mui" in windows folder
But it does not work for me,
probably because i have Energy's ROM.

Got it working!
But I have a small problem...
I have WM 6.5 English version but I filled in my windows live information all no problem but my marketplace is in Dutch (I live in the Netherlands but I would like to have the US version because now I only have 5 aps)
Anyone who has any idea how to change region?
Thanks a lot

Works fine on my WM6.1 HTC Stock Rom..... not much to see there yet though.....

how often will they update the marketplace with new apps?

Well, I read somewhere else apps were "flooding" in, but I haven't seen it. Got it working early last night on my stock 6.1 rom (damn CDMA) and right now I see the same apps. Then again, I'm only searching free. I'm a cheap bastard.

I also can't get it to work on my phone. Something with the ROM I have (EnergyROM Photon latest) that caused it to break. It worked on his ROM from 10.02.2009 but not this one.

Thanks gehzumteufel, it works great!
I'm on a stock VZW 6.1 ROM. It didn't automatically create a shortcut in my "Program files" list, so I just created a shortcut (with Resco Explorer) from the /windows folder. The .exe is called: "WMMarketplaceFullClient.exe" in case anyone doesn't see it.

Ahh well I wasn't aware it didn't create any shortcuts. The ROM I run already has the regular marketplace stuff installed so this just replaces what's there. Good to know. Will add to first post.

Pardon my ignorance, put what folder to you place a shortcut in to get the program to show up in the Program Files list? I tried creating a new directory under the Program Files folder and a shortcut in that directory but it didn't add it to the Program Files list.
thx.

localized version of marketplace has less apps

Same here English 6.5, Regional settings set to "English UK" marketplace appears in Greek and has only 3 applications. Changed time to London UK no change in marketplace.
Any ideas for a fix?

I am pretty sure the marketplace has a check routine to figure out what operator you're on and then uses that to check against what region.

Mine has worked without a hitch... I did notice that it logged on and then downloaded another update and required my MSN login details, but then, no probs. It even found an update for some of my apps and downloaded them.. Quite coo..

Yeah this new 10.07 ROM marketplace works on. w00t back to goodness.

Also I just noticed a lot more apps than on Monday.

[Q] Garmin Mobile XT on Xperia X2

Garmin mobile XT can work on xperia X2?if work,i wan install to my x2..So,give link for download...
thanks...

it works
www.garmin.com

Can you please post what to download?
I cannot find it on the website.

try some torrent search sites like isohunt or piratesbay. he cant just give you the link on this forum. its piracy.
YEEEEY!!! 100th post!!!!!!!
ta ta ta da ta ta da da...!!!!!!

I agree that a link to get the SW is not "kosher" ... I tried to find it on Garman's site to purchase it, but it is no longer offered by Garmin --- but it works very well on the X2 ...
Garmin only offers the equivalent for the Blackberry (ot WinMo) and is beginning to offer one that is based on the newer Garmin SW -- but only for the iPhone ... guess that WinMo phones are left in the dust ... but it wouldbe nice if they offered it so that it could be legally used on the machines -- even if it was purchased "as is" without Garmin tech support ...
Would be nice ...

Thanks for your help. I translated the page and apparently you need to use a registry editor. I am not at all familiar with registry editors and am too afraid to mess up this already messed up phone. But I really do appreciate your help.
