Newbs: cooked rom or cab install? And go back?

Hi all.
I've bought an herald (P4350 in Italy) for my wife. I've registered the product to htc club and i've installed windows mobile 6 in italian.
Now i've read some thread as:
Newbs guide to Herald modification *updated* 10/18/07: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=327046
and:
All you need on your Wing: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=326655
If i've understood well, the first option means overwrite the OS i've just installed with another one with (impressive) features (as touchflo, cube interface, kayser like apps) preinstalled.
The second means collect some apps and install it (maybe it's possible htc home, even touchflo but certainly not cube's interface).
Well, due to limitation of the second way (cube's interface for example), i'd like to try the modified rom (cooked?), but i've some questions:
1) First of all, is it true that i can have all the functionality of the "Touch-IT,WWE v1.1" or similar cooked rom only by flashing the rom or i can found ALL the functionality by installing some apps?
2a) If 1) is false where can i found ALL the apps for doing the same things as well as in a cooked rom?
2b) If 1) is true, can i flash with Touch-IT rom my italian device with italian WM6 installed?
2bI) If 2b) is true, after trying Touch-IT rom can i reinstall my WM6 italian rom by double-clicking on the file downloaded from htc club? If not is a way to rollback to the original rom?
2bII) If 2b) is false (but also if it's true because i prefer the OS in my language ), PLEASE Itje make a Touch-IT,IT where the second IT meas ITALY

1. While you can have the apps, touch-it is built on a newer, more streamlined version of windows mobile 6.
2a. see 2b
2b. You can flash the WWE. I believe there was some effort to get a native language port, ask itje about that.
2bI. Yes. I believe the HTC club one is an RUU, a "Rom Update Utility". If you mess up in the flashing, you can use it restore from bootloader also
2bII. Again, ask itje.
wow that was confusing. Outlines are like hell on a apple.

fzzyrn thanks a lot for answers.
1. So u think that i can have also cube interface by installing an apps? Wich one?
2b. how can i contact itje for a native language port?
Again, thanks a lot for helping me.

i believe there are like flash-based emulations of the cube. Look in the main software development forum.
To contact Itje, private message him. Click on his name and then it should be obvious to extent

Touch HD ROM Testing

Hi all, I have downloaded Windows Mobile 6.5 Developer Tool Kit and the phone emulators on there are excellent. just wondering if anyone here uses this for test touch hd roms before flashing there devices?
If so do you already have the correct settings and rom files for the touch hd that can be loaded with the Windows Mobile 6.5 tool kit?
Also how do you go about being able to install apps on there or flash a new rom as if you was doing it for real on the handset? I couldn't see a way of copying cab files to it.
I think it would be really useful to have a default emulation of the Touch HD so we can try out apps or roms before installing or flashing the phones saves resetting everything if we don't like them.
Thanks

Have you asked in the Blackstone ROM dev forum ?

No, I wasn't sure if this should go there or in general as it isn't actually a ROM or to do with creating ROM's it more about testing them but maybe it would be better of there.
Can a mod move this to ROM development please?

I'm sure it's not so easy (maybe even not possible) in WinMo-Emualtor.
HD has specific drivers and so on ...
But take a look in this thread:

[REQUEST] HD Mini ROM WM 6.5.5 Latest Build

Hi guys.
Has anyone tried or HAS a working ROM for Mini using WM 6.5.5 Latest Build and w/o HTC Sense?
I am trying to find a working cooked ROM if not then I'll make one myself and post it.
I just need to know if there are stock ROMs that'll work for mini.
Here's what I'm looking for:
1. Windows Mobile 6.5.5 latest possible WORKING and STABLE build
2. List of HTC pre-installed software that can be removed
3. Essential software that need to be installed in the Mini (just to make it work)
Thanks.

Use rom kichen alpha provided in this thread to find essential soft to run hd mini, also yuo can find all preinstalled soft there too. Just download Shipped rom, extract, use kitchen to modify it. Simple like 1.2.3
Most of people doesn't use copilot & google maps software. I don't like Manilla's Footprints & Stock pages, maeybe some business people use it, but i don't. And i think is not so big group off business people, who flashes their phones

Yeah... but the problem is that HTC totally removed tmail.exe in their ROM. What I'm looking for is a ROM that's untouched by HTC but'll work for the Mini. Somehow, I find the stock Message soft from MS is more convenient since it also support threaded messages.
HTC has so much to the OS that it has officially screwed it up and making it hog almost 60% of the resources of the phone. I'm going to build a ROM that'll be free for anyone to customize from scratch without the fear that it's not compatible with the Mini.

@pantier If Interop Service can work with homebrew app, you can do that. but in this time, we don't have any solution. only way to add Thai Keyboard is cooked built-in rom, or wait for someone make Interop Service work.

Okay, so i got my Mozart in RSPL mode with the DFT tool, and successfully installed 7713. But because its RSPL, does that mean that the next time i restart my Windows Phone it will revert to stock 7392?

screen shoot please...

I can't wait! Will install and feedback fantastic job you guys!

Hey wolf, I have some problem and i hope you can help me. So here's my story.
2 weeks ago my Samsung ATIV S i8750 got screwed up, after a normal weekly soft reset (i was doing that all the time just to refresh the phone), but this time after the normal soft reset, my ATIV S showed some black screen saying something is wrong with it. I can't upload the pictures here but it was something like
blah blah blah text about some software installed...
(and on bottom was this):
File: \windows\system32\boot\winload.efi
Status: 0xc0000428
Info: The digital signature for this file couldn't be verified
So, after few hard resets it didn't went away and after 20 months of having the ATIV S I needed to flash it for the first time. So in talk with a friend who already did this and point me the rom and files i needed to flash the rom I install this rom: GT-I8750 XXDOC2_RS_signed.wp8 along with the CSC file GT-I8750_OXADOC2_RS with SMD USB Downloader 3.54. I successfully install that rom, and the phone works again, but i have a different problem now.
I don't know if its rom related or it is a hardware related, so i am sking you if you have clue what is going on.
The problem is that after that the phone can't be recognized on any computer. I tried on various machines running different OS's (Win7SP1, Win8, Win10, etc.) I flash the rom on my lap top who is runins W10 btw. The phone is not recognized even as a unknown device in the Device Manager. When i plug the phone to the computer or a wall charger, the phone doesn't play the sound or indicate the sound that it have been plugged to a cable, but it does charge anyway. It is not that big of a problem to live with this. For transfer files I mostly use the Wi-Fi app to transfer files on my pc and vice versa, but I can't do anything else, for example to flash your new rom or any other rom to my ATIV S. Battery life is normal as before tho. So, in your opinion, what do you think it might be? Software problem or hardware problem (usb port on the phone)? I hope i covered everything, but if you need more info, please do tell me, i will provide it. Thank you in advance.

Yeah, probably, cuz i tried with other usb cables, the same results.
Hope they have spare parts for the phone's usb port
Thanks man.

I assemble your firmware (method -WOLF-):
- Replace CSCMgr.dll and CSCMgrSvc.dll
- Replace OEMSettings.reg (included all settings)
- Replace some tunes and pictures
- Remove language dsm
- Xap files deleted by samsung
- Edit the file in the software and system config
At the time you first install the trigger of the config files
After HR removes unnecessary languages and works OEMSettings.reg.
You can put custom mbn or csc.

Thanks for sharing this ROM!
Just curious, what features does it have?
Mind giving us a clue? I believe it does already have interop unlock, possibly some registry tweaks, or?
