ROM Cooking - Touch Viva, MDA Basic ROM Development

I have been looking around and getting prepared on building a new ROM, have got everything lined up and ready to go except for a way of testing the ROM.
Don't want to test it on my own device for the fear of bricking it. I have come across some people use an emulator, is there such a device for Opal,
Microsoft itself has 2 versions but none of those support 240x320 resolution.
A solution to this problem will be much appreciated.

There is absolutely no way to test ROMs build for opal on any kind of emulator or as such...
The only way to test is your phone.

Hi! I'm trying to cooking a new rom for opal but I have same problems.
1 - How can I put ezinput in my rom? I tryed to put the cab as a traditional porogram but it don't works....
2 - Where can I find manila 2D for developers? the .cab I usually install in wm doesn't work if cooked
3 - I installed one theme, but how can I use it by default?
4 - Where can I find usefull tweaks for cooking?
Thank you in advance for answers!

You have you try it on your device dude. I have done it a million times!!

what are the chances of bricking it ?

Lol, see my frnd if you want to cook roms you must have to test on your device only. So better stop searching alternative coz you won't get one. Plus you will often face bricking while cooking rom but u can fix it by flashing another rom... Though sometimes there might be a heavy damage too.

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

my question is i would like to install touch flow, is it a add on for my wm, can i uninstall it if i dont like it and can someone give me a link to download it.
i have been searching the forum for 30mins and i cant find what im looking for.
and do i need to cid to install it.
also is there cube add on for the windows im running and how do i install and find it.
i dont want to flash a whole new rom.
many thanks
mike
Hi,
in my experience I've only seen ROMs with or without Touchflo but never Touchflo nor cubes in standalone packs..but I might be wrong (happens often ). A very personal opinion: those gadgets may look cool in a screenshot but make Artemis quite unusable because our device is not powerful enough. I encourage you to try a Tflo ROM anyway,it doesnt take so much time...obviously be sure to have your original ROM and make a backup of your phone to be able to restore if you're not happy.
Hey sulac how r u doin...good to c u...

A Windows mobile 6.5 with the original htc ship rom Album pls!

First of all thanks for the help and support from this forum. without you i dont know what i will be doing with a windows mobile phone.
so to the topic - guys can anyone cook a windows mobile vanilla wm6.5 rom with the original htc ship rom album. i kinda like the circle to zoom feature and the rotate feature in the oiginal album. i have been trying to do it my self but couldnt get it to work. and i tried to overwrite the album.exe file with a file i found from this forum by searching which was said to work when over written but it says the program is in use and i tried other ways and got it overwritten but still it doesnt work. all my attempts have failed so i would like this very much thanks and i really appreciate the work you guys are doing.
No replies - i guess its not possible then. guys is there anyway i can get the original album on an already cooked rom like miris 6.5 rom.

Polaris WM6.5-21901 German full and only

This is a full and only german WM6.5 COM2 21901 ROM.
I made this ROM for my personal needs and my old Polaris. To give him a new live.
Thanks to all Cookers/Developers! Without their knowledge I would not succeed finding the present solution.
This ROM was build with Barin's wonderful OSBuilder kitchen and unlike other ROM's, you can dump and recook it. All RGU/DSM files are inside (it's a real signed ROM). Feel free to modify it, to fit your needs! Please share the knowledge with the community. Sharing the knowledge rather than keeping it secret is the biggest improvement.
ROM-Base:
WindowsMobile Build 6.5.x COM2-21901
Polaris Native Kernel 6.5 (101MB)
Polaris OEM 3.19 with (massiv) modifications
Packages from Mega (most), Iolite and Topaz
Some custom packages and tweaks
Q: Why to hell a COM2-Build?
A: I dont like the big buttom bar in COM5. That's all.
Q: What packages are inside?
A: Most of Mega, No Manila2D, EzInput 1.5...download and take a look
Downloads:
Please read Post #11! New ROM: 21901_007 (06.05.2011).
I will give it a try because I was searching a german 6.5 Rom for a long time.
Whats about the 3D-Drivers for the polaris, are they included ?
Happy Holidays

Sorry,
3D-Drivers are NOT included. Because the used Kernel is incompatible. If I can find a NK 6.5 for the Polaris with 85MB-RAM (current 101MB) enabled, then I can try to build with the drivers included.

you should first edit the ROM using HTCRIE, after in edit you can add files 3D-ROM Driver files

Wich part of ROM should I edit with HTCIRT?
You cannot use 3D-Drivers with the current Native 6.5 Kernel in my ROM. The kernel is hacked to use the area between 85MB -> 101MB as RAM. The 3D-Drivers like to use this area for DDI.
That's the problem. If I'm wrong, feel free to show me the right way.

Hello s_marth,
great ROM, I like it!!
But I use Radio-ROM 1.59.44.02, and I had also wakeup problems. Do you have another solution?
The keylock doesn't work. I don't want to use s2u2. Could you fix it?

Hi Matthias,
I also had wakeup hangs with 1.59.44.02 (not so often as with 1.59.46.12). I'm using 1.59.42.15 at the moment. Over the last 4 days I had no problems.
What you mean? Keylock or lockscreen? For keylock please have a look at: Einstellungen -> Persönlich -> Tastensperre. It works for me.
For automatic lockscreen I use LockDevice 1.6.

Hi All,
I found a big bug in my ROM!
Please edit the registry to the values in the code window and take a soft-reset:
Code:
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\OEM\TFLOSettings]
"EnableScroll"=dword:0
"EnableSound"=dword:0
"EnableCube"=dword:0
Setting "EnableScroll" to "0" is the most important!
If it is set to "1", the HTC touch.dll/biotouch.dll conflicts with the WM 6.5 builtin touch driver. Typical symptoms are random short hangs while scrolling and lame phone canvas. After edit and soft-reset you get a real fast device.

Sven
Hi All,
here you find a new version of my german ROM for the Polaris.
Changes:
Titanium only! No more Manila2D inside. For me, it is useless bulk.
Fixed scrolling (post #10).
EzInput 1.5 fixed, Landscape added, US and DE keyboards only
LockScreen fixed, HTC-LockScreen-Enh. removed.
Transcriber, Windows Live, Footprints, Manila2D are only present in the kitchen (you can get by request)
EDIT-07.05.2011:
Switching from package "MEGA_Power" (powerexe.exe 2.28) to "POLARIS_Power" (powerexe.exe 2.14). I hope this was the end of search for the reason of random freezes or "sleep of death".
If you like to cook your own ROM, PM me for the kitchen.

EDIT-07.05.2011: New ROM with essential fix, you should upgrade

Hi skysegel,
sorry I forgot to put some modules to slot0. This is fixed in my last ROM (21901_006 from 10.03.2011). I had tested the new ROM over 1 month and got no freeze or SOD anymore.
