Hi, all there German Polaris Users...
We are proud to present our first German WM6.5 ROM.
For sure it's not perfect and not free of bugs at all, but I think we did our very best. This is a Manila ROM, Titanium will not work. A Titanium only ROM will be possible in the future, if there is a need of it. Most Packages are from the HTC MEGA Rom development. But we are planning a Release of Build 23508 with the all new LEO stuff.
This ROM has been portet and customized by SteveP86 and me.
Most porting work has been done by Steve, while I did most on customizing and we hope you will like our work.

Works better then 6.1 fast and stable!!! Great work! Thank you!!!!!
some testing
first of all: THANKS for sharing your work! it's nice to have a german 6.5 rom.
what i discoverd so far:
if you apply the cab file (home weather update), manila does not start anymore. you have to hard reset.
weather update on homescreen does not work with gprs connection, but with wifi!
voice speed dial doesn't exist (or does not work).
it's a pity, that there is only one option in ezinput... (no phone keypad for example)
everything else seems fine at the moment... tomtom works, bluetooth, wifi...
and i do like the touch response settings... to hold your finger a little longer on an entry in file explorer for example... it reduces unwanted actions.
one last question: is it possible to add new words to the t9 system? with the old ezinput, there has been an option to add new words (to xt9 i think). i can't see any possibility to do it with the new ezinput.
please keep up the good work!!
EDIT: one big issue noticed: if a bluetooth headset is connected, you can neither hear anyone you call, nor can the reciever of the call hear you. a soft reset is necessary. calls without a headphone do work.

Hi, first of all, I'm glad you basically like our ROM.
- First you should reflash your device and perform a manual hard reset first. That sometimes is needed (even for me).
- Not everybody needs to install the HomeWeatherUpdate.cab only if your Home Weather does not update automatically. It is a MortScript that actualizes from Weather Tab every 15 Minutes. And actualization works on both GPRS/3G and Wifi from Weather Tab. But you are right, that actualization does not work from Home Tab. It's just a workaround.
- The Voice Speed Dial issue is new, but we will check it out. (look at the bottom)
- The EzInput 2.0 is not fully compatible with our device, and there is no fully working one for QVGA. If you more like or need the other input layouts, just install BJK EzInput 1.5 where all layouts are working. And by the way they need a litte less space on the Touchscreen. This is what I did myself. For sorry I was not able to cook them in, but you can use the cabs you find in this forum. XT9 even works with them.
- The Bluetooth problem you have, can not be verified and even fixed by me because I don't have a Headset to try with, but possibly Steve can help you out there, if he has one.... Sorry
Edit: VoiceCommand (Voice Speed Dial) isn't cooked in.
Hi TomAngel & SteveP86,
first of all thanks for this rom. It works very well, but sometimes it freezes on my Polaris.
Is it possible for you to cook an "light" version of this rom ?
For example I don´t use Manila but SPB Mobile Shell, I don´t use Total Commander but Resco Explorer...
I think that was usefull for many users.
Once more thanks for the first german Win 6.5 rom I found.

QuickGPS seems to have a Problem. After downloading the satellite data, it shows the following message:
Datenaktivierung fehlgeschlagen - Die Ortseinstellung muss aktiviert sein, damit die aktuellsten Satellitendaten für die Beschleunigung der GPS-Positionierung genutzt werden.

"Ortseinstellung" (local setting - for Home-Weather) is activated...
BTW: Nice work!!
But how can I change the backround picture in the maps tab? I'm not into burning naked ladies. I already managed to change the backround for home and the other tabs but the google tab seems to have it's own backround picture. Where can I find it?

With "Ortseinstellung" Home Weather isn't meant. The Problem is that you have not allowed HTCGeoLocalizationService to use your localisation data.
You one have to start google location from it's tab and allow GeoLocalization. Then it will work...
The Filenames of the google tab backgrounds are HH_LOCATION_MAP_**.png (** = 1-10 and BASE)
I hope I could help you...
@Dark Dragon :
I think a light ROM Version is possible but I think we will concentrate our support to the Manila-Style-ROM. If this is OK for you, I think I could post it tomorrow.
BTW Titianium seems to be nessesary for WM 6.5 and everything we could delete have been the Themes/Skins so it really would be light not clean!
@ All
We are happy that you like our ROM, and glad to give something back to the community

Thank you for the reply,
if a newer rom is available I will flash it immediately. I think a little more ram could solve my problems.

Hi,
I also like this ROM. It tried it, but I had some problems with it. I had to hard-reset some times, because boot procedure hang on this silly hacker screen. In addition, I also was not able to have WiFi internet access. I connected successfully to my AP (just WEP encrypted), but neither Opera nor IE, nor weather tab was able to get internet data.
I'ld also prefer a more neutral background, if this is not too much effort to change for you. And sometimes the ROM is really slow because of missing memory, if there are multiple programs running.
Once your ROM is more stable, I will try again. There is definitely a urgent need for a german 6.5 ROM.
Kind Regards

Hi,
first boot takes a very long time, and we did not have such Problems, so I think you have not been patient enough...
If you don't like that "silly hacker screen" just replace welcomehead.96.png in Windows root Directory. About the Background, feel free to replace the default theme by any other you like using m2dc-tool.
Internet access is working over GPRS/3G and Wifi as well. (My primary AP is WPA2-PSK and secondary WEP)
Anyway you are adviced once to hardreset manually after flashing, that fixes some problems like these. Recommended Radio is 1.59.46.12, wich could be the reason of your connection Problems 1.6* Radios are not tested.
Greetz...
NICE ONE
Steve, Tom,
my best congrats for having a german WM6.5 ROM out finally
Looks really nice at first sight, but IMO the low available RAM is a
real showstopper at this point. If you'd manage to increase free
RAM ressources to about 45MB+ even I would maybe give it a shot.
I think pcarvalho could be THE man in this matter
Happy cooking.

Hi Olioaglio,
Thank you for your credits. Your 6.1 ROMs for the Polaris are great. I use 5.0 for fallback in my Polaris. And you are right, the memory leak is a Problem. But we didn't understand how to increase it. how did you manage it in your ROMs? Or is it to different to WM6.5 ? I don't know...
But we are still in an development process and would like to continue our work to a better useable ROM in further releases...
Maybe our Polaris is not the first selection in running 6.5 because all of the new devices have much bigger RAM/ROM.
It would be great if anybody could help us to increase the available amount of RAM...
I think I will PM pcarvalho or gullum in advice to give us a hint or some more help...
So you did not patch your ROM to 101MB ? I wasn't aware...
If you don't know how to do this, PM me. No problem in german
Olioaglio
thx dude.. ill try this one!

Hi,
great Job, tested for some days, it seems to be stable and fast.
I noticed that bubble breaker doesn´t start and i couldn´t add new contact directly after incoming call (new number).
I hope you continue´d this rom design.

Hi :
Newbie (Relatively)
Considering an HTC Touch that comes free with a T-Mobile (UK) Contract.
Problem is I really like taking notes with the Transcriber/Handwriting Recognition input function but can't seem to find it on any UK demo phone (including unlocked friom Carphone Warehouse).
This must exist in the Winmobile 6.5 Rom somewhere.
Can it be enabled ? Anybody any wiser ?
Can anyone please help asap ?
Thanks in advance

Buildin "notes" app support handwriting...
For Transcriber u need to install xtra app.

ok its official,
i ended up crashing my devise for a third time while trying to get my letter recogniser..
clicking on this link will give you an idea what i have tried in the past...

strange.
any ideas.. pls help..
u can enable transcriber by goin into d windows file..and scroll upon the "t" letter files, find trancriber..and There you are..transcriber gets activated..in HTC touch2
Another way how you can enable transcriber for example are the sktools. With this porgram is it very easy. Normally you can do this with the demo version if you do not want to buy it.
transcriber works!

Hi - thanks, this works for me, and I am amazed by the quality of handwriting recognition in WORD. On the other hand it is useless for names and numbers in Outlook!

That is bordering on the edge of my ability to understand what you are asking, however...
If you want to know how to resolve WinMo asking whther you want to send an error report to Micro$oft, you have three options:
1/ Diagnose your problem old school style;
2/ Disable error reporting (preferred);
3/ Hard reset and try again, paying attention to what you install and what you are doing.
Option 2 is best.
Hello,
i used advanced configuration tool to show the 3g auto option in comm manager. Only problem is it wont move, and is stuck in the off position ?
i use 6.1 1.56.405.1
radio 1.13.25.24
Any ideas please ?
steve
hi,
i have hd with stock rom....
i had same problem as you with" advanced configuration tool to show the 3g"
when i wanted to tweak ..my comm manager with "advance config"..
.(.yes as you put it "button was stuck ")
i then tried alternative and it works o.k for me...
... have been " using hd2 comm cab with 3 g slider button " for a few months (5..or maby 6 months ?)
..no problems..!
anyway ..to recap ...
i saw..." tip 49 in..." Leo Hints, Tips and Registry Tweaks"
in the... hd2 general ..section ..
and i quote....from tip 49...
..." 49. Enable 3G Button in Comm Manager
In Comm Manager, you can substitute the Microsoft direct push for Outlook button for a GSM/3G button by installing the cab below. Warning, please execute tip 60 before this tip "
here is the link ..you might want to take a look at it ..?
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=583638
by the way .. i choose to ignore tip 60 as i do not use or miss " direct push "
(also you will see relevant cab for, hd2 comm man , just below tip 58 )
if you want to try it.. dont forget..to install to device and soft reset..!
good luck

hi and thanks willcor for the information.
I found a 6.1 rom that did not suck the life out of the battery, in fact in testing at the moment seems to have slightly better performance. It is called dammsmalltopix and has a very small amount apps, which means you can still add on the one you really want. If, in final testing i find even the topix rom sucks more battery power i will give your .cab a go as the stock rom, with a radio 1.1.4.25.24 upgrade is really good battery wise.
I have tried most(if not all) win mobile 6.5 roms and they all burn down the battery...they look very nice though. The best 6.5 rom for battery life was miniterror ravge`s that was controlled by the lock program s2u2, for keeping background apps off as best as possible.
Thanks again,
steve.
Willcor,
just as an update...that works...perfect mate, thanks
Steve
