Verizon XV6900 Roms?

I have searched but cant find a straight answer. I had a xv6700 and used the kitchen without an issue to make 6.1 roms it seem all the 6900 roms are sprint.
I was wondering if someone could point me in the direction of a regular verizon not alltel wm6.1 rom with no bugs ex. 6700 had the worst battery drain problem when i installed 6.1 an found nothing to fix it thats why i upgrded to the new phone any help would be appreciated.
I think there should be a dedicated verizon thread now that it has been released im sure there are other people with the same questions.
Thanks again for any help anyone can provide

With no bugs... I am constantly working the bugs out of mine... No where near anything i want to release and support online... There is a kitchen you can get from ppcgeeks or better yet from ppckitchen.org that you can use to make your own rom for the xv6900

ok thanks also do they make the rom installers that dont require the use of a kitchen program just basicly a 1 click upgrade .exe

Great, you replied to a year old thread...

Hey, it's 2011 and this thread is helping me!

2012 and its helping me! >_<;

HTC 6900
2016 and this post keeps me from having to drill through my 5 TB of backup files to access the ROMs that I used to cook.
Ebay is supplying me with several devices to convert to remote security and pest repellent stations.
Thaks for keeping this post available.

An appeal to all the senior members of this forum :(

Hello Everybody,
As we all know that GENE (P3400 and P3400i) are the cheapest Windows mobile phones available in the market and most of the people, who wanted to try this wonderful platform for so many years but didn't have the budget to buy the devices, have finally got their chance to try it. And one of the most luring upgrade for these phones is the Windows Mobile 6.1 ROMs, which are said to be faster and a little more feature rich than the Windows Mobile 6, which ships by default on the newer GENE devices, the Post March 2008 P3400 and P3400i phones.
Now all the ROMS that are currently on this forum, do not apply to these phones due to changes in the SPL and other parts of ROM. The version no of SPL, ONBL and OS for these apps varies between 1.10.0000 to 1.17.0000.
I can understand that it must be tough to crack these roms, but you are the heros who have done it in the past, and the reason for not being a single rom available for these phones is not this, according to what i feel. It may be ignorance, lack of time etc.
So on behalf of all the owners of these device, i brought up this appeal to all you that please take out some of your precious time and please try building a solid solution to this problem. Please try to port at least one Windows mobile 6.1 ROM (possibly with Manila 2D of Opal ) for these devices. I am sure many of us will feel greatful of you all.
Thank you very much in advance guys!
Regards,
Sumit Bhardwaj

Great News Guys! Ankit360 has found the ultimate working solution for upgrading newer P3400i phones to Windows Mobile 6.1.
Please find the method here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=2985353&postcount=51
It will first make your mobile dead and then recover using the Orekflov's Unbricker and then you'll be able to flash it to the rom of your choice.
Currently, only one rom is available for the P3400i, that is LomLom's Fusion 9. Find a link to it on the same URL.
Enjoy!

Thanks for the info dude. Maybe I shall try cooking a ROM if I had some free time.
Regards,
Carty..

even im thinking...of cookin a rom...tell me da basic tools needed for cookin...ryt nw im usin lom lom fusion rom on my gene....
its better dat i start searching it from da forum
will update u guys !
EDIT: got da tools needed http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=371680...im starting to cook now !

Yeah!
Its very odd that there are hardly any cooked ROMs available in this forum! I joined xda vox forum and there are atleast 10 developers (No GREAT PEOPLE) who literally cook ROMs day in and day out. And most of their products are great, actually you will never want to use the Official ROM ever again , be it fh, fireburned or Dr. G (minus the Rose ROM ), sk.
I hope we will soon find some come cooked ROMs in this forum without the useless stuffs of official ROM.

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 ?

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

OMG where do I start?? Blackstone Upg?

My Uncle gave me his old HTC HD (Telstra Branded) running 6.1
I would like to upgrade it to 6.5 but have no Idea where to start or where I can get a cooked rom from .
I found a tute on flashing the 1.56 roms but the more I read the more confused I become. There is soooooo much information on here I am suffering from information overload and I cant seem to find a really basic step by step guide or where to download the cooked roms from all the links I follow are broken.
Its very frustrating for a newbie!!
Can someone please give me a leg up!

Hey Darkfibre,
Welcome to the world of phone flashing! First of all it's very important to know what kind of phone is it, is it GSM or CDMA? After that, you'll have to unlock the phone in order to flash a custom rom. If you've got a GSM device, then XDA is your best friend, if you have a CDMA phone then head over to ppcgeeks.com. Each site will have detailed instructions on how to unlock and flash your phone. Then it's just a matter of trying out a few roms until you find one that suits you. Goodluck and happy flashing!!
Major

No worries, just follow this step by step guide:

It'll answer all questions.

Thanks the heads up guys.
I am just wondering what uncle is going to say when I tell him I turned his HD into a BRICK.
Here goes nothing

One can always use a good door stop! Goodluck!

Hi everyone.
Well I built up the courage and now its 6.5 Energy.Blackstone 21908.Sense2.5 rom.
WOW Wat a buzz when it boots up in the new rom.
Love the new ROMS its made the old HD a new phone. Now its smooth and responsive with great usability.
Just LOOOOVS the sense 2.5 interface.
Cant believe how much I have learnt in the last few weeks
You right Krook this could get adictive!!
I would like to get a pinch zoom working just to rub it in the nose of the apple buds!!
I loaded pinch to zoom but it didnt work. Is there a Rom where it works, or should I stay with opera 10.
I also run the android app on it but its a bit micky at the moment.
This **** is really exciting but HOW do you learn it all!!
I really bow to all you guys U the MEN!!!

Hey Darkfibre,
Pinch to zoom isn't really rom specific. I know I had a bit of trouble getting it going the first time. I believe opera 10 is still not supported but that may have changed. It works for me in Opera 9.7 build 35964. You may need to install a different version of opera to get it running. Still not really worth the effort imho but it's a great start.

[Q] Newbie needs assist

Hi!
Good day!
I have a HTC HD2 with Android 2.3.4 installed in it and I would like to try/ switch to Windows Phone7. I've seen a few videos over youtube and read some of the threads here but all I see are windows 7 BETA roms. Is there a "final" rom for the HD2? If not, where do i find the latest Windows 7 ROM for my HTC HD2?
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1427611 - This thread seem to have compiled all the ROMs and updates for HTC HD2 -Windows (Thanks to the efforts of the developers and the one who compiled) but I cannot seem to figure out which ROM to get. Any assistance would be very much appreaciated.
Apologies for asking a very basic question.
Thanks!
Carlos

WOW..
I don't really know what you mean with BETA roms, because all those roms shall be very well developed, in my eyes.
"A final rom" by meaning a rom that is almost as much developed as the official released WP rom, then you can just choose one from the development threads. In ex. my HD2 is running on XBmod rom and is just like running on a official rom for me. There are many good roms like the one made by HD2Owner, or the on by Pdaimatejam etc. All these roms are WELL developed, not a BETA.
But if you mean a final one by meaning that the development is good enoug so the rom is stopped on development, you can't find one, because all roms are still getting new features just like the official one is updating itself

here you find all ROM's for HD2
recommend this one
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1356833
dont forget to read tutorial for install
also dont forget to need ask Microsoft for Live activation code (all HD2 ROM's need this)

Thanks!

All the ROMs are basically the same, albeit tweaks the chef may have added. You have to realize that WP7 is constantly updated by MS...just like Android. All the ROMs sporting v8773 (Tango) have the BETA v8773 build. Thus, when MS releases the official final version of v8773 you'll have to reflash your phone and install all your apps again when the chef releases an update.
The Yuki/XBmod ROM is on the official v8107 (Mango). It is also the most stable and the only updatable custom ROM via official MS Zune update. As such, no reflash needed. It is no longer chef supported, but it's still the most stable one of the bunch.
I have tried almost all of the ROMs out there and still use Yuki/XBmod on my phones.

Hi hjhjhj ,
Noted on that. Things seem clearer now.
I just did it! I was able to boot my phone on Win7 woohooo!!!
Thanks to all who replied to my query

Ok one last problem, when i call Microsoft help desk and ask for an activation code, what details do they ask? will they make sure I have a phone originally installed with WP7?
