First of all: thanks to netkim for upoading!!!
On my FTP you will find:
- mtty-new.exe (to upload the BIN files, BUT I suggest use the OSIMAGETOOL from xda-developers)
- SN40011wwe_AWS.zip (BIN file of 4.00.11 without the T-Mobile utilities)
- SN40016wwe_VS.zip (BIN file of 4.00.16 WITH the T-Mobile utilities)
Since it is easy to remove the utilities I suggest the 4.00.16 version: (which is already on my XDA )
1. Remove the Batterry monitor link from windows\startup
2. Disable the T-Mobile Today plugin
3. Remove program files\aim (If you like MSN )
4. Remove program files\tmobile
ftp.alain-net.net
usn: xda
pwd: xda
Is there any differences compare to the previous version?
Thanks a much!
Yuo are writting that it is easy to remove T-Mobile utilities. How do you mean that? Removing StartUp links to disable starting these utilities? Or you know how to free ROM space used by these utilities?
I edited my first post
Beside T-Mobile utilities, is there any differences?
Beside T-Mobile utilities, is there any differences? Does it have SIM Tool Kit?
How can I obtain numbers for _\cfg\params file in Kitchen, used for extracting ROM image?
900/1800MHz or 900/1900MHz
Is this ROM for 900/1800 or 900/1900MHz?
THNX
Nothing must different, but haven't tested much since I have it only for about three hours
@karlic
It depence on your radio
Does this version have the same faults like 4.00.10, i.e. no ability to upgrade/downgrade the ROM anymore via acticesync/cradle?
Looks like it not an .exe installation so you should be fine. You shouldn't be doing an .exe upgrade anyway.
Aurora13, does this version still mask the "G" notification icon?
Anyone else want to host these? The listed FTP is full. I could but don't have them yet.
Yep busy FTP
5 users max with 45 KBps max.
And it still hasn't got the "G".
Aurora13, are you on the AT&T Network? If not and you use Tmobile, how do they notify you that GPRS is available?
For version .11, I guess this is cooked which is how you removed the utlities?
@aurora13:
Do you know if Phonext (option set ring tone) is properly working with version.
Jeffrey
@valheru
I'm on the Dutch O2/Telfort network, and normally I got the "G". But not anymore since the .10 rom.
Haven't tested the .11 version and I got both versions I from netkim, so don't know anything about it.
@Goijers
I don't know, because I don't use that function of Phonext.
@Aurora13
Please, How about GPRS with ROM 4.00.16 ?
Somethings new :?:
Can not download new ROM -too many users
Waitting for Jeff Summers and Developers
Thanks :wink:
Is there a new radio version with this update?
Regards,
xnappo
I got both files and burned 'em. From where I'm sitting, it looks like the 4.00.16 says T-Mobile on the boot screen, but it doesn't seem to have any other T-Mobile features: even the STK.EXE (SIM ToolKit) application appears to be missing (it says so at startup, and the link in Programs is broken.
Was this ROM 'treated' before upload, or is this indeed a broken ROM ?
I don't know, I'm just the guy who host it
I installed the .16, but haven't noticed any difference. Toolkit?!? There's no toolkit in it and it didn't give any error about it nor does it have a link in the startup folder.
So that is strange...
Does anyone know how to cook own ROM? I've got Universal and there it's not so hard, mainly if U need only 2 add or remove several files (I'm not speaking about adding AKUs ....)
THX
btw. there must be a way (see pdamobiz) but i dont speak or read thai
For the trinity there is a HEX pack which unpacks the ROM, then you change the device id and country id and you rebuild the rom again. Anyone has additional info in this method?? Maybe is works for the Orbit/Artemis?
i found on buzzdev scooter's rom kitchen i'm gonna try that.
think we are in the right direction.
Scoter rom kitchen can extract the rom on an Orbit I believe...
this looks perfect: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=1156254
Warning: Although this ROM Code and ROM Kitchen has been tested on my IPAQ 614c (FA992AT#ABB). Don’t Flash unless you know what you are doing! This ROM Kitchen is for Personal use only. ROM Code and ROMs Created with this Kitchen should not be released on the forum.
First, Thanks a lot for help from Oldcat, Star, T2 Wuqiyu007 and Saxxon.
1. The ROM Code was dumped from the IPAQ 614c;
2. The language is English;
3. No any change has been done, so you can think the ROM is official;
4. You can flash the rom by SD_Loder mothed (describe following);
Flashing instruction:
1. The name of ROM code is flash.dio
2. Copy the flash.dio to your nomal Micro SD (Micro SDHC does not work), and put the file in root directory.
3. Power off.
4. Press and hold the Mute+Record heys same time, and then press and release the power key.
5. The SDLoder screen will display.
6. Don’t tuch the phone.
7. When the flashing finish, the phone will restart, doing clean boot. And the MS welcome screen will come.
You can download the ROM Code here, http://www.fs2you.com/files/9886b957-1d78-11dd-a1e1-0014221f4662/

great work!
now it is only a matter of time until the german rom will be released isn't it ?
james
Does this mean anything for us 6900 series owners? Could this be ported over to the Sable devices?
I don't think it does, and why I keep seeing threads concerning this device in forum topic is baffling to me, as it is a completely different model of phone! the 614c was created AFTER the sable, for goodness sakes it already had WM6 on it
I'm not exactly sure how to cook roms or even how it is done but I am thinking there may be something we could use from this rom. I wish there was someone around that had much more knowledge about this stuff. Where could I go to learn about this? Is there a different way to cook roms depending on the model of phone or is it basicially the same idea for all phones? I used to screw around with my old motorola phones alot and would definitely be interested in learning about this just to get a mobile 6 rom out for this phone.
As I know it will be worked on 6900 series,but it's up to the developers choice....See,O2 Xda Exec it never ever have the offical WM6 ROM and up,but now the WM6.1 ROM be released so much by the developers,yeah,that's great job..
So we will see & god bless!

can you make a ROM with danish language on....
Is possibly to make WiM 6.1 ROM for 614c?please..please
excellent !!!
now we can start somewhere
Hi cnbenson, can you upload somewhere else, links are not working anymore.
Hi!
I want this too but the link to the rom doesn not work...

Yes please upload somewhere, link to download the ROM code is gone. Furthermore, this site needs to install program in order to download, please upload somewhere like zshare, but hopefully not RS.
Thanks to u.
I'd be interested to give this a try too. Like Saxxon, I have a pre-release version and somewhere along the line an attempt to update it has left me with a device that pretty much works but it does not sync or charge. I'm sure it's a firmware issue but none of the ROM updates I've tried have helped so far. Anyone with any pointers as to which of the rom components are likely to be the cause?

Forgot to add that at boot time, I get:
OS-v1.00.01
FW-v0.77
its the radio/QC firmware,
if you have the latest bootloader (which it looks to be the case) you can update the QC fw with the book key combination : lower left key on the side and lower right key on the side ... then turn on ... it will say "sd loader modem"
. then it look on the sd card for the new QC firmware file. actually i have not tried it. but if you get the official amss.mbn file from somewhere you would be able to upgrade.
let me know if it works for you.
saxxon
Thanks for the speedy response.
So I need an appropriate amss.mbn file to drop onto the SD then?
Is there a way of extracting this from another device or is there another source I could look at?
Hi n1gel,
do you have this ROM available? I would love to have it, it's the original ROM for 612c right?
Unlike HTC/O2 or any other manufacturer, they made available of all ROMs from their website. Does HP has the same? Would like to download the original ROM for back up.
Would appreciate if you could help upload and we could share it. Thank you so much.
Any idea how long the AMSS.mbn file should take to flash?
I've tracked one down and placed it on the SD and (with a fully charged battery!) gone into SDLoader mode. It's detected AMSS.mbn and started 'Writing' but I don't know how long it should take or what 'success' might look like!
Any clues?

UPDATE
The newest 610-series Windows Mobile 6.1 ROMs may be found HERE. Many thanks to jpmatrix972 for collecting these ROMs and hosting them for the community.
If you've never installed a new ROM before, I'd recommend first downloading and installing the new 0.89 radio, in order to improve signal acquisition and overall radio performance. Backup ALL your data on the device before you run this! If you have any problems with this process, read more about radio problems and installation in this thread. (A big thank-you to hipppo for posting these files!)
Afterwards, go here, and download the flash.dio file (which is the ROM itself). For information on how to install the ROM, please read my second post, below.
Once you're finished installing the new ROM, you should install this file in order to fix a bug with call waiting. After that, you're all done! Enjoy WM 6.1.
(If you miss having a proper D-pad on your iPAQ, there is a work-around program here. And if you need to get your hardware keyboard working with Opera Mobile 9.5, look here.)

HP612_WM6.1_OS 5.2.20737 ROM: Simplified Chinese - Elegant Black - Clean: by NGSEE
Recently, the base ROM has been updated very often, many thanks to acwan for providing the transplanted base.
Here's acwan's explanation of the new base:
Supposedly the previous 20721 release, with the new AKU 1.4 base, was a "beta" version. This one is AKU 1.4 "basic". In terms of speed it feels about the same as 20721. Its software compatibility is pretty good, under this base you should be able to run software that is usually restricted to specific devices. The bundled software is about the same as the previous Clean 20721 Simplified Chinese release.
*******************************
August 29th
HP612_WM6.1_OS 5.2.20721 ROM: Simplified Chinese - Elegant Black - Clean: by NGSEE
Here's the Simplified Chinese version! This is from the AKU 1.4 base ROM, to which I've added "touch" capability, which is also called screen swipe capability. It means that where you previously used the stylus to tap up or down, left or right, now you can instead use your fingers to swipe the screen - you'll see what I mean when you try it yourself. [I think he means he's included the HTC TouchFlo scrolling.] Let's see (it's been a while since I updated)... comparing this release to the previous one (20273), where I updated to the official 1.01.04 OEM, and updated the XIP & "boot", but the software was the same as before. In contrast, this time I didn't really feel like including the official "Streaming Player" or the dialer "Band Switch," friends that need them can go download the first three attachments in dxvolution's thread and install them themselves. (http://www.pdaclan.com/thread-17615-1-1.html). [I've downloaded these three files and attached them below.] There's basically no problems with using this ROM. Much like the English version released yesterday, if you don't have any recently used programs in the Start Menu, the cursor will turn white when you move it to that space. I don't know if this is a bug or a new feature of AKU 1.4.
*******************************

HP612_WM6.1_OS 5.2.20721 ROM: English - Elegant Black - Clean: by NGSEE
This one is using the newest 20721 base (AKU 1.4), the XIP and SYS were all transplanted from the Samsung I-908 Hong Kong edition English ROM, served up hot and fresh. As for software, there isn't any difference from the past clean releases, I've kept using the newest official HP 1.01.04 OEM. This time I've even updated the "boot", I can't feel any difference, friends that want to try something new can give it a shot.
PS: There's a small bug, if the list of recently opened programs is empty there will be a white bar, expect a fix. Eh, I figure there aren't that many people who have that space empty anyway.
*******************************
August 27th
HP612_WM6.1_OS 5.2.20296+20275 ROM: English - Elegant Black - Clean: by kkwy
The XIP has been transplanted from the Ri Da [don't know if this is a name or a brand] 20296 base, the OEM part has been updated to the newest official HP English ROM 1.01.04, and the SYS has been transferred from the "Diamond" 20275 and NGSEE's 20273 English - Elegant Black - Improved ROM. As for the software, it's about the same as the last release, MMS should be fixed now.
Standard page pool is 12 MB.
*******************************
August 24th
HP612_WM6.1_OS 5.2.20273 ROM: English - Elegant Black - Improved: by NGSEE
Just like the 20273 in Simplified Chinese, the XIP is ported from Xiao Qiao's 20273 base, while the OEM has been updated to HP's new official ROM 1.01.04. After flashing the OS version will appear as 1.01.04. The SYS was ported by someone on xda-devs (I've forgotten their ID, oops...)
ROM Specs:
1. OEM is the newest official one; in addition, the streaming player, battery manager, and HP Shortcut have all been upgraded.
2. Battery level is displayed as a percentage.
3. Used a Diamond skin for WMP.
4. The ROM has been made as clean as possible; software includes the official standard dialer, standard English keyboard as well as Samsung fullscreen handwriting 2.0 [for Chinese input], Office applications and Live Messenger, a small reset tool, a Chinese dialer [?], and a new version of USBtoPC.
5. Improved appearance of the system icons, which were taken from xda-devs
6. Standard page pool is set at 16 mb.
Many thanks to PDAclan's niezher for testing this ROM!
Not much else to say

HP612C_WM6.1_OS 5.2.20275 + 20273 ROM: Simplified Chinese - Elegant Black - Clean: by kkwy
These past few days I've been researching the HP 612c's XIP and OS's "DIY" [Do-it-yourself?]
I've grabbed the newest IPAQ 1.01.04 ROM, and upgraded its XIP to version 20275
Then I grabbed NGSEE's HP612_WM6.1_OS 5.2.20273 Simplified Chinese - Elegant Black - Clean ROM and took out the OS part, the OS's OEM section I used is the updated IPAQ 1.01.04 one.
After I finished it, I've used it until now without problems.
*******************************
August 17th
HP612_WM6.1_OS 5.2.20273 ROM: Simplified Chinese - Elegant Black - Clean: by NGSEE
Recently I haven't had anything fun to do, I was itching to make a 20273 ROM. I've been using it and I figure it's pretty good, friends who want to try something new can give it a go.
It's a pretty clean ROM, I've minimized the cooked-in programs. Software included is pretty much the same as the 20273 English version. [See above.] I've removed the HP theme, now the standard theme is WM6.1 green, standard page pool is 16 MB, Simplified Chinese MMS 4.2.8.10, and that's about all there is to it.
*******************************
The attached files are for the August 29 release.
To flash these ROMs:
0) Backup your data! This will erase ALL files you have stored on the device.
1) If the ROM is compressed, extract the file flash.dio from the archive (e.g., zip or rar file) using the password "israpda.com" for the newer ROMs, or "PDAclan.com" for the older ones (note that the "PDA" part is capitalized).
2) Copy the file flash.dio to an micro sd card formatted to FAT 16. Do NOT use an SDHC card, the bootloader can't read it!
3) Insert the card into your 610/612/614. While it's still off, hold down the voice record (left side) and mute (top) buttons.
4) Still holding the buttons, hit the power button. Hold them until you see the bootloader start up.
5) Sit back and relax! I'd recommend that you don't touch anything until it's totally finished and the screen comes up telling you to calibrate the touchscreen. Enjoy your new ROM!
In the unlikely event that something goes wrong and your device is stuck on the blue HP startup screen, see here for a fix.
As usual, you use this at your own risk. Let me say that again: ANYTHING THAT HAPPENS TO YOUR DEVICE AFTER FLASHING THESE ROMS IS YOUR OWN RESPONSIBILITY. I haven't tried all of these so I can't comment on how they're working, but the Chinese guys think they're the bee's knees. (That is, they're really good.)

Hi
Can I use this ROM HP612_WM6.1_OS 5.2.20721 ROM: English - Elegant Black - Clean: by NGSEE on my HP Ipaq 614c ?
And what does it mean "Clean" ? What exactly was deleted from original ROM?
Thanks.
PS Now have ROM WM 6.1 for HP IPAQ 614c CE English OS 5.2.19965 (Build 19965.1.2.3) Ver 1.3 (yevg001)
I wasn't sure, but somebody over at PDAclan asked the same question. Anyway, yeah, these ROMs will work on any of the 600s (610c, 614c, etc.)
I think these are "clean" in that there's nothing added to them, the only programs are those that come from the stock HP ROM.
Oh year, I flashed it. =))
So, what can i say, it is very fast!! Extremely fast!
But some chinese words still are
Also found some new programmes
PocketCalc in chinese and with 14 day trial =)))))
WM6.1Storage, RESET and another chinese programm (something for working with SIM Card)
Some more pictures
Find bug
There is a programm WM6.1Storage with an error )))
Any suggestions?
THANKS !!!
FOR YOU EFFORTS
i think the hp 614 is an excelent machine one thing missing support
Support from hp
support from some guys with great knowledege
Today i tested the abillities of the hp 614 it fell from my vstrom 650 suzuki 60kmh with the big battery on
i was lucky no car hit the phone
excellent build quallity
Now so far i havent tried any modifications on the phone
sergiorus reports a very fast wm61 version
due to my previous experience from the highly overestimated (bull**** to me tytnii) no wm61 was faster than wm6
sergiorus can please confirm on that or run some benchmarks?
also the is some chinese leftovers in the rom ?
are they everywhere or just in the calculator?
thanks again hope we have a better camera ( the one in the phone sucks)
IF ONLY WE HAD A CHEFF WOULD BE GREAT
HOPE WE SEE LATER AN AMDROID VER 2
THANKS ONCE MORE GUYS
GEORGE
GREECE
satiros
yes, this ROM has chinese leftovers and not only in calculator. I found them also in voicecommander (when starting voice something say in chinese ), in WM6.1Storage, Sim Manager, ClearType
Voicecommander totally unusable, all in hieroglyphs
Also when opening textfile
And when device was just flashed date was in chinese also.
To sum up, i can say that it is fast ROM, faster than WM6.1 HP IPAQ 614c CE English OS 5.2.19965 (Build 19965.1.2.3) Ver 1.3 (yevg001), but it needs some fixes, improvements for english users. Flash it only for tests.
NOT RECOMMENDED
PS Which benchmarks you want i test?

Um, that was a question, right? There seems to be a couple of programs in Chinese for all of these, but if it says "English," the OS and all major programs will be in English.

Hi all,
I've flashed my 612 with "HP612_WM6.1_OS 5.2.20721 ROM: English - Elegant Black - Clean: by NGSEE" yesterday.
1st impression: applications definitely load faster! Battery-life have to wait and see.
However, there were a few things I need to change:
1. Date was in Chinese. Need to change to English.
2. The only text input options are the default English keyboard and a Chinese one. I had to manually enter the registry entries to enable back the Letter Recognizer, Block Recognizer and the Transcriber. I managed to change the text label of the Keyboard to English as well.
3. The default calculator has an expiry date. I had to download a 3rd party calculator and set it as the default one in the registry.
4. The left softkey on the today screen is set to Call History. Have to change to my favorite Messages through the registry.
One main grouse I have is that I can no longer enter SMS by using the hardware keypad anymore! When I press the keys, only numbers will appear. Anyone has any idea how to get back that function?? I'm used to enter text through the keypad.... Please help!!
after reading though the internet, I realized that XT9 has been disabled....anyone knows how to enable back?
To enable/disable XT9, edit the following registry keys:
Under: HKLM\System\CurrentControlSet\Control\Layouts\e0010409\
Edit "Ime File" = "\\windows\\eT9.dll" and "Layout Text" = "eT9 IME" to enable XT9.
Edit "Ime File" = "\\windows\\compime.dll" and "Layout Text"="COMP IME" to disable XT9.
I'm including the .REG files below.

Thanks for replying.
I've read that in other forums as well. The problem is that the file \windows\eT9.dll doesn't even exist. I checked the spb backup image I created before the upgrade and it's not there as well. Therefore I believe there should be another dll file it should be pointing to.
My guess is one of the dll files in \windows\programs\tegic\et9. Btw, this ROM doesn't have anything in the \windows\programs\tegic\et9 folder. So I restored those files from the previous image.
Can anyone one who is still on the original ROM please advise what is your registry entry for HKLM\System\CurrentControlSet\Control\Layouts\e0010409\?

Hi all.
Each time I reboot my Xperia, I have to set my default panel.
I didn't understand why until I see that there isn't any "Paneldefault.exe" file into my 'Windows/Startup' folder.
It's strange 'cause I just bought my phone and I just upgraded it to the latest official (by Sony Ericsson) R3 ROM...
No hack, no custom rom or something else.
Could someone post this file please (from the official R3 rom... but I don't know if it does matter) ?
Thanks a lot and have a good day !
PS : Sorry, I have to improve my english. Hope you can understand me.
