(sorry for polish lang).
this rom's i cook without device..
if moderator delete this topic, ok.

******************. My friend Ham3r here cooked like 10 roms without having the actual device, made the effort and you can't do one simple thing a test and post results? If you think that flashing a phone with a not-well-made/unfinished rom can brick your device, you should at least read the wiki or understand what is written here in the forums. And before you start to insult me or whatever, take into consideration that it IS possible that you don't have the amount of knowledge needed. Start reading - stop posting stupid things.
Mod Edited. You can make your point without insults. The warnings members give are valid for a ROM that is not tested.

welcome chef, but why in wm6.1?

6.1 is faster.
rom's for leo are only 6.5.. i don't understand that.

I can see everyone from Poland ganging up on people who ask for this ROM to be removed. It does seem strange however, that someone would cook a ROM for a device they don't own, and can't test.
99% of people will NOT flash an untested ROM. It makes no sense. Even following all the correct procedures, it could still brick the device, as the chef doesn't even know if the ROM works properly. Also, uploading as a file that we need to convert maybe isn't the best thing to do either. Most people don't have the tools or knowledge to convert these files.
Can we please end the flaming and insults. How old are you people really!?

I am intrested in 6.1 rom.
_Rayearth, you have hd2, have you tested it?
Thanks.

It's because we do test untested roms and therefore we know better
I some1 want to remove thread just because it offers untested rom, then I think this person should do a little research on this matter.
BTW, is it realy so hard not to read this thread if you don't like/use the content? just ignore it.
hrcro, yes I have but personaly, I think it would hard to use it with fingers on 6.1
on the other hand, clean and fast rom like this is rare these days

The vast majority of roms on here are untested before posted, the only difference is half the chefs don't tell you! Chefs with custom kitchens cook for a lot of devices and post for users to test. NRGZ28 did this, yet nobody asked him to close his down, and he is a brilliant chef!
Stop asking for this to be closed, the OP has as much right as anyone to ask people to test something for him, it is the users that make the decision. If you don't want to test it, sod off and leave the thread alone.

Simple FAQ

New? Read this before you read anything else.
1Q. What is a Herald?
1A. A herald, is a device created by HTC. It is also sold under the HTC P4350, XDA Terra and the Tmobile Wing.
2Q. So the Wing is a Herald?
2A. Yes. But it has a different keyboard layout. Everything else is the same and ROMs from each other will work aside from the keyboard layout being
wrong.
3Q. What's a ROM?
3A. A ROM is the firmware (think of it like the windows installation) that your phone runs. There's the stock ones known as the "Official RUU's" and
the custom ones, known simply as "ROMs."
4Q. How do I flash a ROM?
4A. Read the sticky that tells you how here.
5Q. So the stickies are important?
5A. Yes. Read them first and you'll learn enough to ask intelligent questions and actually get answers that don't say, "READ!!! %#@$"
6Q. How do I flash USPL?
6A. USPL is NOT a ROM. It is a TOOL to flash other ROMs.
7Q. What's an NBH file?
7A. Read 4A.
8Q. Can I flash a Herald ROM into anything that's not one of the devices mentioned so far?
8A. No. You don't use diesel on a gas car.
9Q. Is HARDSpl permanent?
9A. Yes and no... it cannot be overridden unless you run USPL along with your RUU... If you don't understand this, please research and read some more.
10Q. I just installed HardSPL and now my device is stuck in the bootloader and gives me an SPL of 1.XXX!!!
10A. The intructions for that post specifically mentioned that you should NOT use this if you had an SPL lower than 4.xxx to begin with. I'm sorry but
you'll have to bring your phone to a repair center.
11Q. I just installed HardSPL... now I can't install my RUU.
11A. Did you read 9A? If you want to reinstall the stock software for some unknown reason but don't want to loose the HardSPL, you'll have to recompile
the RUU NBH so that it lacks its SPL.
12Q. Why are there so many stickies?
12A. Because we have a nice but sticky happy mod. If you don't like it, you haven't read enough of them. READ THEM AL.Alol
13Q. Can I ask you questions before reading the stickies?
13A. No. If you have, it's because you didn't read this... which consequently means that I've sent you here to read.
14Q. Why are people mean to me?
14A. You didn't read, bricked your device and then complained about it... read.
15Q. Why does everyone want a black rom? Why not a Puerto Rican rom? Or a white Rom?
15A. That's a weird question... go away.
16Q. How long should I wait for an answer for before I post another post about it?
16A. Indefinitively. If no one answers in ONE WEEK. Then bump your own thread. Do NOT create another thread. It might be cause for someone to beat you up... cause we've got our thugs that do that kind of stuff for us... we're watching...
17Q. Why did you miss # 10?
17A. Made you look.
18Q. What's the best ROM?
18A. It depends on your needs.
19Q. Ok, then what's the best ROM for me?
19A. Pop quiz: What's the best possible car for me... and no, you can't ask me questions. Off the top of your head, without knowing anything about my needs and wants. What is the best car for me. And mind you, if you get me something I don't like later on, I will come back complaining...
20Q. I have a Terra. Where is the RUU?
20A. Right there with answer #20154221445. Yea... it doesn't exist.
21Q. How do I install XXX?
21A. Did you read the walkthrough/readme file? If there wasn't a walkthrough included with it, is it a cab? If it's a cab, then run the cab... from the phone. If it's just random files, usually copy them over the windows folder. USUALLY... not always...
22Q. But it gives me an authentication error when I try to install this.
22A. Make sure that if you're installing... say.... the CommManager. That the CommManager isn't open in the background.
23Q. Is it ok to ask a question completely unreleated to the subject on a thread?
23A. No.
24Q. Is it ok to ask about a bug fix for ANOTHER ROM on one ROM's thread? Their ROM doesn't have this bug.
24A. Is it ok to go to Ford and ask them about why their Chevy has a leak in the radiator by design?
25Q. Why won't the cook give me a cab file that he used on his ROM?
25A. He didn't use a cab file. He used an OEM package.
26Q. Why won't he share his OEM Package?
26A. If it's a program he made, it's his intellectual property. If it's a program he didn't make, then he just doesn't feel like sharing for one reason or another. I don't read minds, so I wouldn't know.
27Q. If you can't read minds... how do you know all this stuff?
27A. I read... and cook... and read... and umm... yea... OK I CAN READ MINDS! STOP IT WITH THAT WEIRD LOOK!
More to come... stay tuned.

I agree. We need to consolidate the stickies so that it doesn't look the development forum.
and, for your information, the dinosaurs went extinct because they were homosexual sinners. duh. </sarcasm>
Just to be clear, I think Papamopps is doing a splendid job. But maybe creating only a few stickies and linking them to the items... OR placing all this into WIKI articles and then linking to them in one sticky.

BTW - when puting all important threads into a link-collections. THEY WON`T disappear from the forum 1st page. if someone writes inside it..... it WILL appear on TOP.
And why did you post your Faq - on "Herlad mobile 6"????? - is it WM6 related NO!!!! so psot it in Herald genereal.
And next time (as an answer to FAQ12) - write a PM to me and give your knownledge in making it better!!
Best regards.
I moved the thread because it is not WM6 related.
I don´t want verbal fights here. I´m open for PM and you have my msn Ivan - so why don´t you contact me before psoting such a "crap" in some aprts of it.
Thanks.

Programms for cook a rom!!!!!????

hi
i want cook a rom.
what for "PROGRAMMS" i need for cook a rom??
BIG THX
I am interested too
Hello Everyone,
I am interested too, what software do I need to cook a Windows Mobile ROM?
no offense, but cooking a rom would take a LOT more time and brainpower than simply searching the forums to find out how to do it.
if you dont have the skills to find out, you don't have the skills to do it.

Actually I beg to differ, never cooked a ROM before now, and I already got WinMo 6.5.5 ported with sense in a matter of minutes, not as hard as you make it sound

With the TMOUS Leo 2.10, what's the diffence between "...ship.part1.rar" and "...ship.part2.rar"?
Also, Ship_pkgs.7z for the LEO seems to be TOPAZ. So, which one is the LEO...?
I didnt mean it that way, tbh, I have no clue about rom cooking, I've just gotten sick of all the idiots who come posting about "WHERE IS ANDROID????" and "WHY IS MY PHONE BRICKED!!!!" who obviously did no research at all before starting. sorry if i rubbed you the wrong way.

You need two parts to extract file, then you get .exe file, then extract that .exe file again, you get RUU_signed.nbh.
Now you just import RUU_signed.nbh and cook your own rom.
I use ervius's visual kitchen. Here's a link to one I threw up last night using the stock rom from TMOUS...

He already responded and apologized... Reading everyone's posts before you hit reply is a good thing, generally.
how exactly do i extract the RUU_signed.nbh?
UPDATE: I got it, for anyone that may be wondering the same thing I was having trouble with, open the downloaded .exe from with an archive editor (7-zip, or winRAR) and extract the RUU_signed.nbh.
Are you guys dumping the default T-Mobile ROM? I keep getting errors when I try to do that....

Thanks hdubli!
You're a "quietly brilliant" cooker!
Keep up your good work!
But I also have two questions:
How did you rescue your bricked TG01? Or do you have a new one?
I saw that your Rom uses much RAM. Do you think that you could optimize the RAM? That would be a major step in the right direction with our TG01
Best regards and have a nice weekend!
DunkDream
HI,
Thanks for comments, but i am just a normal person
I have my briked tg01 as well with me.I borrowed one of my friends tg01
Yes the RAM consumption is an issue.One by one need to check what can be done to stop unwanted programs thereby increasing free ram with sense
I will post the ROM for you guys to check ?
pls let me know
Hi hdubli, happy to see that many cooker are working on our great tg01, thanks for your work.
I can't wait to see first 6.5.5 rom with full sense and htc UI without the limitation of 20% battery.
If you want an unbranded rom start cooking from the italian one.It's completely unbranded .
I hope you'll insert the multilanguage support in your future roms.
Thanks again for what you are doing guys.

Hey hdubli,
sure, you can post the Rom so that we can check on the running processes and see how it's doing.
I'm sure that many people would like to test your Rom since your a great cooker. You proved that with all your others Rom in the past.
Looking forward to try your Rom. Also looking forward to your WM6.5.5 Rom

I thought about that too, cuz with an autoinstaller able it's so easy to install whatever we want to our little one after flash and before first use, but... I think that it's not the way to go because he says he doesn't want anyone to COOK with his driver.
hdubbli, I would be glad to have a look on your ROM, and other things, If you can send me a PM with a link to download it would be helpfull I think. I will give a look into RAM usage also.
Nice, DL link, let's see what's inside ^^, can you make us 2c about the files modified to make it work?

Today I'll flash your Sense Rom to see how it works.

Custom ROMS

8/10 people who load ROMs have boot issues on their HD2s.
Why dont cookers make executable files like HTC does for ROM updates....saves all the hassle as well as forum traffic...
Good idea.. Just upgrade the rom via internet without flashing it again and again..

i disagree. 8 our of 10 people if much to high. its more like 1 or 2%, as generally people correctly read the information given in the rom thread and have a successful flash.
its 9.9 out of 10 people who DO have boot issues who either did not read, or did not understand RADIO requirements. there is absolutely no benefit for chefs to make EXE files for rom updates, it
a) could NOT be executed on the phone
b) coud potentially kill TMOUS phones if an incorrect radio was included, or someone download a NON TMOUS rom because they did not read properly.
i think this thread should be closed.
People who brick there phone are 99%/100% the people who don't reade carefully!

[Q] How to port/cook an Android ROM for HD2 (chefs please help)

Hello
I'm looking for some hints about the subject: how anyone can take a shipped, let me say, HTC Desire rom and let it work on HD2.
I'm not talking about doing heavy tweaks, modifications and so on... just to take a stock Android ROM and have it working on HD2.
I asked to some chefs and received some hints but It's not enough.
I don't want to think that this is a "secret" and I think would be great if some chef would share his experience/step-by-step instruction on how to do this.
As I said before, I think we could start just with simple porting of a stock htc desire ROM, just to understand all the steps. I think that further steps on how to customize and tweaks will be explored later and anyone could experiment itself.. but we need a basic starting point.
Some step by step instruction will be great like:
1) Download shipped rom from here .........
2) unrar it in linux folder
3) copy this folder, rename the other one, dowload this file, copy this...
4) execute shell command XXXXX
5) copy on your sd card
6) boot...
of course I know it's not so easy, but is just an exaple on what I ask here. I think there are a lot of other perople looking for this.
Thanks to any chef/dev that would to explain to our noobs how to get the "magic"
p.s.
I ask the moderators to keep, if possible, this thread in the Dev forum... this because we need help from devs here and in the Q&A forum it will be never noticed.
I came across this the other day that maybe of use:

Yes, I was pointed to that thread too. If you look at the end there are some questions I did. The problem is that is based on MIUI... That is already a custom ROM.
I think the better way to understand the process (not just do it) is to have hints on how to port a standard/stock HTC DESIRE rom.

Ideally the same way. In theory it should work...I never tried because sense builds (especially hd ones) are very laggy

Hello, I was just replying on the other thread to thanks you for the answers
I will try to follow your guide to port a stock desire rom (strange that are laggy for you... for me they fly...)
Anyway it's still something not clear about the donor files... If it's ok to take them from an already HD2 working rom or not.. but I will ask on your thread, avoid to make confusion
no one tip from the devs?
I'm start thinking that instructions on rom cooking for hd2 is like a secret
I've asked this many times, but as you said, no one seems to want to share this "secret"...

you can start with one of the hunderd rom that chefs already cooked. This thread is just to ask help with cooking a rom, you have not to wait.. you already can use android daily on your phone.
I have had success building with this guide but cannot get it to work with cedesmith's new initrd.gz. Does anyone have done tips on how to build with the new initrd.gz?

Did you cook a MIUI rom or a Sense rom or a stock android rom?
For the cedesmith's initrd.gz I was thinking the same thing.. maybe we have to ask directly to him.
wow, both tyween, and rafpigna, started from this, to now:
Rafroid
Typhoon
best roms on xda. Really nice work guys!
But still, no one shares the "secret" I have tried several things myself, but it didnt work. Would really appreciate if someone could share how to port a rom to the hd2.
Yeah would be great if tyween and rafpigna let us know how they managed it, what guides/reference they started of on or if they have any tips for us etc
I totally agree, I would definitly cook my own rom if I knew how to...
